About this title

Synopsis:

Wildlife author and photographer of more than thirty books (including The Encyclopedia of Deer, The Deer Hunter’s Illustrated Dictionary, and Whitetails), Leonard Lee Rue III provides the most comprehensive reference on whitetail deer ever published. This book will appeal to anyone remotely interested in whitetails and other deer: nature buffs, deer lovers, deer haters, gardeners, farmers, photographers, biologists, mammalogists, highway troopers, and––not least––deer hunters, who will find a wealth of material that will improve their understanding and appreciation of their quarry.

In spite of the manuscript's astounding thoroughness, Rue keeps the text short and clear to allow room for hundreds of his extraordinary photos, illustrating virtually every aspect of whitetail behavior, physiology, and more. Outdoors author Neil Soderstrom “[has] never encountered a manuscript as interesting and comprehensive on whitetails or any other species. Most information in this book is entirely new….This is a very good read, its factual material gracefully presented and richly enlivened by [Rue’s] personal observations and good humor.” Even if your bookshelf is already full of titles about whitetails, this new addition has breaking research that is necessary for anyone interested in whitetail deer.

About the Author:

Dr. Leonard Lee Rue III has lived in the outdoors among the creatures that he photographs and writes about for most of his life. For several decades, he was the most published wildlife photographer in North America, with more than 1,800 magazine covers to his credit. He is the author of thirty books on wildlife, including The Deer of North America and The Way of the Whitetail, and writes monthly columns for Deer and Deer Hunting and Whitetail Times magazines. In 1997, he received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the North American Nature Photography Association (NANPA). Rue resides in Hardwick, New Jersey.

Charles R. Acsheimer is the author of seven bestselling books on the white-tailed deer. Alsheimer's articles and photographs are regularly featured in America's leading outdoor magazines, and he is considered one of the top authorities on deer behavior. In 2000, a national survey sponsored by Deer and Deer Hunting magazine named him one of deer hunting's top five inspirational leaders of the twentieth century.

Dr. Larry Marchinton is a retired professor of wildlife biology at the University of Georgia, who has intensely studied and researched whitetail deer behavior for more than three decades.
