Informational

My husband bought this book to learn more about deer and educate himself. He is an avid hunter and had enjoyed learning more about deer, their behaviors and how to identify the various types.

Outstanding Reference Work

There is nothing you want or need to know about deer that is not covered in this book. Rue has every detail about every variety of deer found in North America. He combines solid biological research with his own personal observations to provide an interesting, informative and entertaining work. This book belongs in the library of any serious hunter.

This is "the" book on deer for hunters, ranchers, and more!

What a thrill to see this book back in print. It's first edition was one of the Outdoor Life series and has given us the tools to understand one of North America's most majestic creatures. The life cycle, aging, growth patterns, habitat and environmental needs of the whitetail are explained in detail with the writer's storyteller style mixed in. This book can be understood and enjoyed by young and old, hunters and ranchers, nature lovers and anyone interested in learning more about one of the most unique animals on earth.
