In Defense of Hunting: Yesterday and Today - Paperback

by James A. Swan (Author)

In prose that vibrantly evokes the beauty and the cruelty of nature--and the archetypal nature of the hunt--James Swan argues that acknowledging the instinctual roots of the hunt is vital to repairing our modern alienation from nature and crucial to our understanding of our basic human needs. Swan is also the author of Nature as Teacher and Healer.
