Prairie Pothole Fever: Serious and Not-So-Serious Lessons Learned from 32 Years of Hunting Saskatchewan Prairies, Home to 10 Million Ducks

The author, with family members and friends, has been making an annual duck hunting trip to Saskatchewan for 32 years. As the author writes: "The hunting is exhilarating; the land captures my imagination with its muscular beauty, and the local people are as genuine and generous as the land."

The stories are appropriate for young and old alike, anyone who has enjoyed, enjoys or plans to enjoy hunting and the gathering of family, friends and dogs.

Prairie Pothole Fever is also a how-to guide for those who would like to make their own trip to the famed prairie potholes of Saskatchewan, home to 10 million ducks. The book explains how to pursue your own hunt without guides, and gives the reader what they need to know about practical details like crossing the border, declaring guns, buying provincial licenses and federal stamps, locating a region to hunt, ordering topo maps and more. The book even incudes no-fail recipes.

The author notes: "Every duck hunter in the United States should make a trip to the prairie pothole region of Canada once in a lifetime for duck hunting of a lifetime."
