You know Robert Ruark was a world-famous newspaper columnist. You may know that he was a war reporter and a big-game hunter. He was also a passionate figure, a recorder of the violent, and a many-sided man of adventure. This timeless tale, originally published in 1957 and never out of print, tells the story of a remarkable friendship between a boy and his grandfather. The Old Man and the boy hunt in the woods of North Carolina together, and they fish in the lakes, ponds, and sea. All the while the Old Man acts as teacher and guide, passing on his wisdom and life experiences to his grandson, who listens in rapt fascination. In Ruark’s skillful hands, the book becomes much more than a boy’s early lessons in hunting, fishing, and camping. It is a heartwarming, eloquent, and ultimately poignant tale about choices, about responsibility, and about becoming a man. |
