“IN DEPTH EXPLORATION of the Hunter’s world, philosophically, culturally, spiritually. The book talks to the philosopher, psychologist, conservationist, wildlife manager, clergy and the Hunter. A major contribution to literature.” – Bob Norton, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Wisconsin, author of The Hunter: Developmental Stages and Ethics

“A PENETRATING AND MASTERFUL piece of scholarship that interweaves at least a dozen disciplines into a profound theory of male development. . . an intriguing formula. . .that harmonizes nature with male spiritual development. . . will become a major title. . .” – Michael Gurian, best-selling author of The Wonder of Boys, A Fine Young Man, and The Purpose of Boys
