Adventures of a Hunter
A lifetime of hunting, exploration, wildlife encounters, and unforgettable journeys across some of the world’s most remarkable wild places.
THE BOOK
Living on the Edge: Adventures of a Hunter
More than a collection of hunting stories, Living on the Edge is a visual and narrative record of decades spent in wild places — adventure, wildlife encounters, wilderness, personal experience, photography, and a deepening commitment to conservation and stewardship.
From the mountains of North America to the savannas of Africa, the canyons of Mexico, and the peaks of New Zealand, the book documents encounters with over 50 species of game animals and features approximately 300 photographs from a lifetime in the field.
