How does a Utah Mormon boy become a Licensed Master Guide with a yacht in Alaska and, eventually, an international hunter of world renown? Jimmie Rosenbruch, his wife MaryAnn, and their remarkable family are true pioneers and adventurers and have been fortunate to share in the last days of the true golden era of international hunting. With Divine Assistance is the story of Rosenbruch's amazing and adventurous life.
Rosenbruch begins with tales of his life in the state of Alaska, where, in a daring move, he took his wife and young family and started a new life that would, in time, make him a true legend in Alaskan outfitting. His stories of their adventures as they learned the ins and outs of living in the Alaskan bush are exciting ones. With the support of his family and the bastion of his faith, Rosenbruch built his business into a remarkable success and was able to begin following his hunting dreams to the farthest corners of the globe, launching an international hunting career the likes of which few other hunters have ever equaled. The majority of the book covers his international hunting adventures, from his first African safari in Sudan in 1979 to argali hunting in Mongolia in the early 1980s to later adventures in Europe and the South Pacific. He hunted in Turkey at a time when few Westerners had been there, and caught the fall of the Iron Curtain and breakup of the Soviet Union, opening up new opportunities in new places. Many of the hunting destinations and opportunities Rosenbruch experienced have changed irrevocably from when he first experienced them, making this book a glimpse into an era that can truly be considered the Golden Age of Hunting. Rosenbruch's hunting experiences culminated in his being the only professional outfitter to ever win the coveted Weatherby Hunting and Conservation Award. |
