ArchieHood 3,692 Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 The Airgun Hunters Chronicles. .....So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservation, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences. Miles Johannesburg (Milegajo) made a radical change to his (and his family's) lifestyle by boldly doing things that you and I may previously never have thought of doing. Within the pages of this book are a collection of accounts and essays written by a man who wished to reinstate hunting to its passed glory as his and his family's only means to provide food for the body and nourishment for the soul. A medium through which he could, observe, connect with and explore his environment, not solely to exploit it. Written over the course of a year, Miles charts the changes in the seasons, the habits of his prey with humour, prose and vivid description. He tests equipment, experiments with age old techniques as well as manufacturing home made pellets. Survivalist or hobbyist, The Airgun Hunters Chronicles has something for anyone who has ever experienced a love for the great outdoors.For the price of a tin of pellets you get a first hand insight of one mans quest to live the dream, snippets of a strained love affair between two grown hunters and their weapons but more importantly you will be supporting an author and fellow THL member who can give us something different to read that we can all relate to....Enjoy..........I did. http://www.lulu.com/shop/miles-johannesburg/the-airgun-hunters-chronicles/paperback/product-20672093.html;jsessionid 3 Quote Link to post
