Book Description
Dutton. 1965 (1987), Second edition with extra chapters by Richard Bourne and Kathryn Mackey. BILL WAS A VERY PATRIOTIC FELLOW, AND WAS INTENSELY PROUD OF OUR "AMERICAN DECOYS". HE LOVED THEM ALL, FROM EACH GUNNING AREA. THIS IS THE BEST BOOK, STILL, ON THE HISTORY AND USEAGE OF OUR DECOYS--HOW EACH AREA DEVELOPED THEIR OWN REGIONAL STYLE TO MEET THE CONDITIONS IN WHICH THEY HUNTED. BILL WAS A WATERFOWL HUNTER, AND VIEWED EACH DECOY THRU A HUNTER'S EYES. THE "WHYS" OF CONSTRUCTION AND USE WERE IMPORTANT TO HIM, AND SHOULD BE TO EACH COLLECTOR. Many PHOTOS of classic decoys. This copy with extra laid in articles on Elmer Crowell and Wisconsin decoys. Fine in fine dj. ISBN: 0525245006
