trenchfoot 4,243 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Books are there mainly for "entertainment". Whilst some have more fiction in than others, I wouldn't knock folk for writing them until Id tried putting one together myself. 6 Quote Link to post

Chaff 3,590 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Phil Drabble of pedigree unknown. Good read. Darcy's books I have a few signed ones including of dogs and deer. Poachers companion by Walsh another good one I thought. I still enjoy Plummer story's rouges and running dogs, lepus, are a couple of good ones 1 Quote Link to post
