Since that date, he has lived on the back page of every issue of that magazine. \u003cbr\u003ePeabody is a consummate waterfowl and upland bird hunter. Excepting those times when his profligacy assumes more than usual proportions, a well-endowed Spendthrift Trust allows him to hunt wherever he wants and whenever he wants. He has left his boot prints from southern Argentina to northern Canada - wherever geese or grouse or ducks or woodcock can be found. \u003cbr\u003eDogs display a sincere affection for him. His shotguns have no time to collect dust. He is not infected with the disease of politically correct posturing. Gun Controllers and Pseudo-Environmentalists don't like him. \u003cbr\u003eThis is the third volume of Major Peabody's shotgunning tales. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author: \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eGalen Winter lived in Latin America, traveling extensively while negotiating and managing contracts with Latin governments and companies. He returned to the United States as a corporation attorney in Milwaukee and in Chicago. Later, he opened a law office in northern Wisconsin where, he writes, \"Man can associate with dogs and shotguns without arousing too much suspicion.\" After moving to Wisconsin, Winter gave up private work but became the Consultant in International Affairs for Federacion Internationale des Quiellers which took him from England to Calgary to Taiwan to southern Argentina and points in between. \u003cbr\u003eWinter has contributed hundreds of columns to several national and regional outdoor magazines. He has compiled a fish and wild game cookbook \u003ci\u003e500 Fish and Game Recipes\u003c\/i\u003e (now in its fifth printing), written six volumes of short stories, and published two novels. \u003cbr\u003eWinter also found time to engage in his passion for hunting and fishing - preoccupations that have taken him from north of the Arctic Circle in Canada's Northwest Territories to Brazil's Amazon basin, Argentina's Patagonia, the waters off Ecuador, Costa Rica and Cuba, and many other places where fish and game occur. \u003cbr\u003eWinter holds a Political Science, a Masters in International Business Administration and a Doctor Juris degree.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 188\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.43 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 18, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51751068467488,"sku":"9781926918068","price":25.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/f2b36a1a4e22c4735ba1583c39e95d93.webp?v=1779963587","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/the-journals-of-major-peabody-a-portfolio-of-deceptions-improbable-stories-and-commentaries-about-upland-game-birds-waterfowl-dogs-and-popular-de-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
