{"product_id":"wingbeats-and-heartbeats-dave-books-9780299294700","title":"Wingbeats and Heartbeats: Essays on Game Birds, Gun Dogs, and Days Afield","description":"\u003ci\u003eWingbeats and Heartbeats\u003c\/i\u003e is a wingshooter's odyssey to the wild places where, at the end of the day, the companionship of faithful gun dogs and good friends matters more than a bulging game bag. In this sometimes humorous and sometimes poignant collection of essays, Dave Books celebrates a time-honored connection to the land and the hard-earned hunting rewards of an outdoor life. Through these essays, readers tag along on adventures in the forests of Wisconsin and Minnesota, the fields of Iowa and North Dakota, the prairies of eastern Montana and Nebraska, the mountains of western Montana and Idaho, and the deserts of Arizona. Books also writes of the game birds that hunters pursue and admire: grouse, quail, woodcock, doves, chukars, Hungarian partridge, and waterfowl. A heartfelt tribute to the freedom and magic of the hunt, \u003ci\u003eWingbeats and Heartbeats\u003c\/i\u003e is a book that has much to say about work and fun, success and failure, and the sights, sounds, and smells of a day afield.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dave Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0299294706\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299294700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/19\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.51h x 5.86w x 0.79d","brand":"Dave Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981537673471,"sku":"9780299294700","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d3f72949-5074-4fe8-906c-4ddb4dee2941.jpg?v=1683256159","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wingbeats-and-heartbeats-dave-books-9780299294700","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
