Opis

"Steps into God's Country" begins with a child just learning about nature - to an adult who respects the land and what it has to offer. Russell Smith shows us how families teach their children about how to provide for themselves and their families while protecting the balance of nature. Heartwarming stories about growing up - that move on to stories about the experiences and dangers of communing with nature. Sharing his experiences in God's country with family, friends and strangers, Mr. Smith brings the reader into his world of hunting, fishing and the outdoors, and why he loves it. Learn, laugh, cry and enjoy as the 396 pages and 78 photographs guide you on a journey through one little boy's outdoor adventures as he becomes a grown man with children and grandchildren of his own. "I had a strong desire to get outside as a child and I didn't realize it was probably just something in my genes all along," said Russell. Though Russell Smith has written hunting, fishing and outdoor stories for nearly thirty years, the book was only put together after a woman said, "I don't hunt and fish myself but I truly enjoy the human interest way you tell your stories." "Steps into God's Country is a truly enjoyable read " wrote Professional Angler and Outdoor Television Host Joe Thomas. "Russell's memory and attention to detail made me feel as if I were right there beside him every step of the way. As a fellow hunter and fisherman, I could truly relate to his passion for the Outdoors." Will Primos, Founder of Primos Hunting, noted, "Russell writes with love for the life he has been so fortunate to lead. He writes about what influenced him as a young man growing up, how much his extended family meant to him, and his appreciation for being able to walk in God's country. This book chronicles all those things that make up a life well lived." Have you ever seen a solid white jackrabbit in the wild? You will within the pages of Steps into God's Country.
