Synopsis

There’s more to hunting with rifles than aiming and firing. This book strips the sport down to the basics—rifle components, ammunition, quarries, shooting technique, and more—to ensure that readers have the knowledge they need to not only hunt, but to be successful, and, most importantly, safe.

Gr 5-8-With borders and backgrounds in camouflage colors of green, gold, brown, and black, these books have a distinctive look. Well-matched color photos, insets, and sidebars supplement readable text. Young hunters are urged to learn about wildlife, practice and follow hunting laws, and err on the side of caution. Readers learn that blaze orange is worn by safety-minded hunters and, in some cases, their hunting dogs. It is noted that laws help animal populations stay healthy. The books emphasize safety and sportsmanship, stating that some "believe that hunting with a bow is more sporting than with a gun because an animal has a better chance to get away." The sport's dangers are enumerated, and the books also emphasize hunting's traditional aspects, which include feeling like a part of the natural world. This series will be welcomed in areas where hunting is a popular pastime.α(c) Copyright 2014. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
