So, I've never done this before but it's worth it in this case. As various seasons approach and we all head off to our respective camps, cabins, and blinds, many folks will be scrounging for some good reading material to help pass the inevitable hours spent waiting on an animal or back at camp. I've read many good and great books on traditional bowhunts. Classics like Maurice Thompson, Saxton Pope, and Howard Hill remain cornerstones in traditional bowhunting lore, and there's some good current authors out there writting even still, (MANY good one's I'm hoping!). But if you are in the market for an excellent book that will keep you turning the pages, do yourself a favor and grab Longbows In The Far North: An Archers Adventures In Alaska And Siberia by E. Donnall Thomas Jr. The book is a logically ordered series of essays that cover his traditional hunts in Alaska, Montana, and Serbia. I'll admit I'm only 3/4 of the way through the book, but the writing style is flawless, the hunts are artfully told, and the tempo is spot on. He freely admits before hand that some of his hunts don't end with a kill, though it no way detracts from the grandeur of the hunts. If you are searching for the next great bowhunting read, and haven't read this one yet, give it a try.
I have read several of Don Thomas' books, and I agree. He is a very good writer that those of us who love the chase via traditional bow will relate to his thoughts and adventures. One of my favorite authors.
One with the wilderness by Mike Mitten is another great read. I have never read this one you speak of though. I will look for it.
