Tangled Line and Spent Shells: Stories of Favorite Guns, Old Dogs, and Dear Friends

By Craig Daliessio

Do you remember your first bird dog? Your first shotgun? The rod you learned to fish with? When you close your eyes, can you smell your granddad's pipe and his hot coffee in the chill of a duck blind? Have you ever carved your initials into your tree stand or a notch in your stock after taking a buck?This book is full of just such memories and images. It's fishing with your best friends on a summer morning. Walking a hedgerow with your favorite old dog, feeling a tug on the line, and one in your heart. In "Tangled Lines and Spent Shells" Craig Daliessio has woven warm, sentimental, sometimes introspective stories that take you back to a warm campfire, dinner in the kettle, and your hunting companions returning from the lengthening shadows at the end of the day. Inspired by the great Gene Hill, Craig reminds us all why it is we really find ourselves "out there among them" and what it is we're really seeking, when we hunt and fish.
