  BOOK REVIEW


BAREBOW!
 The hunting book of your dreams!

As I sit and watch my favorite hunting shows, I often wish I could be there! Just like you, I wish I was young enough or rich enough or strong enough to go on these incredible adventures we see or hear about. Well, my friends, now we can go along with Dennis Dunn as he attempts to complete his quest for the twenty-nine North American big-game species --- with no sights on his bow!

Dennis takes his readers through the intimate details of the hardships and the glories of achieving the ultimate goal of this lifelong quest. This is the book of your dreams!
Weighing in at over 9 lbs., BAREBOW! has 504 pages and 29 chapters of tastefully written stories even non-hunters will enjoy reading. Add the magnificent artistry of award-winning Idaho artists Hayden Lambson and his son, Dallen Lambson, and BAREBOW! becomes a beautiful coffee table addition for your family and guests to enjoy now --- and for generations to come.

Hayden’s 30 paintings depict each species in all the splendor of each one’s natural environment (with two for the Grizzly Bear, in honor of Dunn’s World Record). Woven into the chapters, as well, are 36 of Dallen’s remarkable wildlife pencil drawings.  The work also contains at the very back of the volume (with appropriate page references) 60 color photographs of the author’s best shots taken over his hunting lifetime --- of wildlife alive “on the hoof,” and striking wilderness landscapes.
 
BAREBOW! An Archer’s Fair-Chase Taking of North America’s Big-Game 29 is truly an exciting treasury of hunting stories unlike anything ever before published in this type of format.  I think it would be hard to imagine a more remarkable hunting book, or one that is better written for those who enjoy outdoor adventure and good reading.  Though this book may SEEM pricey, let me assure you it is worth every penny! It is truly a work of art.
