FROM MY COVERS; Twenty Two Selections From the Old Hemlock Collection of Sporting Books & Mystery Novels.
Old Hemlock. 1995 No Place, 1st edn, 127 pages, decorated end papers, limited to 1250 numbered copies in slipcase. Book and slipcase fine. SIGNED and dated by George Evans (author). Item #004622
The book is unique among Evans' "Old Hemlock" editions because it bridges his two writing personas: the "Dean of Grouse and Woodcock writers" and the mystery author who wrote under the pseudonym Brandon Bird. The anthology includes favorite pieces drawn from his classic bird hunting books, such as The Upland Shooting Life. These stories typically focus on the "Old Hemlock" line of English Setters, ruffed grouse hunting in the Appalachian mountains, and the ethics of the sporting life. It features rare and out-of-print excerpts from his suspense novels (originally published by Dodd, Mead & Co.). This includes material from works like Death in Four Colors and Hawk Watch.
