    Extensive interviews with dedicated bird hunters throughout grouse country invite you to pour a Bourbon on the rocks, and sit in on a series of rich, highly personal conversations with many legends of the sport. The meticulously kept game log of one veteran, for instance, records an astonishing lifetime of 38,000 grouse flushes. As noted Michigan bird-hunting writer Steve Smith points out in his Introduction to the book, it boggles the mind to consider that within these pages are at least 1,000 years of collective experience chasing the King of Game Birds.

    A Passion for Grouse is illustrated with hundreds of spectacular color photographs that bring the reader right into the authors' favorite coverts, the smell of autumn in the crisp air, moving up behind a white dog frozen on point and shivering with excitement.
