Soft Covers. Etat : VG. No Jacket. Maps, Photos, Drawings (illustrateur). 1st. Every serious hunter of big game dreams of hunting in Alaska. For Gary Joll, a top-line NZ professional hunter, guide and author of one earlier book on hunting in NZ, the opportunity for such a trip began with an invitation from Johnny Luster, of Palmer, Alaska, couched in what Joll described as ". English cum-Indian pigeon grammar," but the message was clear ". you come work for me. I no pay you, you no pay me. You work. You hunt." Afer a year of planning Gary Joll and a companion, Bob Hart, were Alaska bound. Their "work" was to assist Luster with his summer-time horse trekking business, with hunting a down-time sideline. What eventuated is told in Jolls' engrossing and interesting account of the beauties of the Alaskan landscape, the pair's relationship with the extended Luster family circle, their "'work" and the excitement, sometimes dangers, of hunting in the wilds of Alaska. However, this was to provide the pair with two moose, two black bears, a caribou, grizzly bear and a dell ram for their trophy list, to which was added a rare prong-horned antelope and a mule deer when they travelled to Wyoming when their assignment with Johnny Luater ended. For the twon Kiwis this was not a luxury holiday; life in the Alaskan equivalent of the NZ "bush" was isolated, facilities were primative and at times food was on short rations. But, as hunting experience, it was a never-to-be-forgotten adeventure, and one which will give any hunter/reader cause to think "If only." First edition from John McIndoe of 1978, 148 pages, illustrated with numerous b/w photos, chapter head sketches by Jim Wakelin, map on inside face of front cover.
