Softcover. Etat : As New. Previous Owner Name. A biographical account of the author's life as a professional hunter in New Zealand. The narrative follows Ross Curtis from his early beginnings in the Buller Gorge, where he shot his first deer at age eight and was providing meat for his family by twelve. The story traces his path as he becomes a government deer-culler for the Internal Affairs Department during an era when foot shooters were employed to control deer populations and recover skins. These entries continue his storytelling, often focusing on the transition from backcountry life to farming and the humorous mishaps that occur when hunting with family and friends.
