Synopsis:
In this thoughtful collection of events and gatherings from his own life, Jake MacDonald chronicles the outdoor adventures of guys he’s known. They fish, they hunt, they take off on foreign jaunts. Typical guy stuff, maybe, but MacDonald writes about these adventures with the sensitivity of a man who was taught ethics by his father, who cherishes nature and who loves the company of women. Love and loss figure in these true stories, as do other pains of being mortal, but there’s also much joy in Macdonald’s genial recounting of his fifty-plus years of male pursuits. Whether it’s crack-of-dawn motel breakfasts, starlit stakeouts in the bulrushes, out-of-control helicopter rides to the barrenlands, or day trips on the blue, blue sea with the sharks circling, let Jake take you along for the ride.
