MERE INFO
Asia, like Africa, is one of the Valhallas of big-game hunting. After the solid success of Czech?s book on Chinese hunting (Hunting in the Land of the Dragon), he decided to do a book on the other Asian giant: Russia. And when we speak of Russia, we talk of all the terrain that goes from the Polish border in Europe to the Kamchatka Peninsula just above Japan. With a plethora of game animals, Russia has always had a rich big-game hunting history. Ken Czech, one of the foremost experts on Asian big-game hunting literature, chose some of the best-known names to contribute to his work.
Whether it is pursuing snow sheep in Kamchatka, red deer in the Urals, tur in the Caucasus, or tiger on the Amur River, this book covers all the big-game hunting that was once found in Russia. A wonderful collection of stories that is the best of the best from the great and varied literature that has sprung forth on Russian hunting in the last 150 years.
