In Grouse and Lesser Gods, Ted will take you deep into the mysteries and delights of his home coverts, all part of an extraordinary piece of property — the Promised Land — that he now owns and hunts. You'll watch the field work of talented dogs like the English setter Salty and the feisty Labrador retriever Dixie; thrill to the explosive flush of the grouse and the erratic, twittering flight of the woodcock; and panic as the noise bursting from the thicket in front of you isn't your gun dog but an angry she-bear.

On the lonely Keppoch moor a dense fog was settling while four young sportsmen doggedly continued their “shoot.” There was a sudden report and a few minutes later one of the party was discovered seriously wounded. Several days after, when the victim of that unfortunate “accident” was well on the road to recovery in his host’s house, he was found shot through the temple. The local police investigated with unusual thoroughness and ingenuity, and had it not been for one minor fact, the first shooting would have passed as accident, the second as suicide. But that single detail was enough to arouse the suspicions of Francis MacNab whose detective genius is well known to readers of other Ferguson mysteries. The criminal had made none of the mistakes so helpful to the detective, and MacNab was unaided by any of those intuitions which are convenient in fiction but seldom occur in real life. The result is a study in detection that will meet the approval of the most exacting reader, while a sinister premonition and tense excitement throughout will hold him to the last page. As for attempting to outguess MacNab—Mr. Ferguson’s old readers will warn you that it’s useless. (The Grouse Moor Murder was first published in 1934.)

Grouse and their habitats are of much interest to hunters and game-dog enthusiasts, and to the many others involved in outdoor recreation. However, grouse are also of great value in their own right as a beautiful part of nature. Recent research regarding government policies has clarified old problems and controversies, which makes this new study on British grouse timely. Adam Watson and Robert Moss offer some insight into the natural history and biology of British grouse species, ranging from aspects of behavior and historical relevance of their names to population fluctuations and conservation efforts.

"In Central Scotland, grouse numbers were reasonable in the mid 1970s, but after poor weather conditions during 1975 and 1976 they started a decline which many people feared to be terminal. By the early 1980s a high proportion of those connected with grouse moors felt in their heart of hearts that grouse shooting in Scotland was a thing of the past. The Scottish Grouse Research Project was started by The Game Conservancy Trust to try to figure out why this dramatic drop in population occurred and try to reverse the decline in Scotland."

Sections include:- Grouse shooting: ecology and economics; Changes in numbers of grouse and other moorland animals; Demography and annual changes in grouse populations; Population biology of low density grouse populations; Social behaviour of grouse; Hen harrier predation and disturbance of grouse; Population biology of cyclic populations: the effect of the trichostrongyle worm; Ticks and louping ill; Heather loss and restoration techniques.

Like that earlier grouse hunter Aldo Leopold, Mark Parman takes to the woods when the aspens are smoky gold. Here, in an evocative almanac that chronicles the early season of the grouse hunt through its end in the snows of January, Parman follows his dog through the changing trees and foliage, thrills to the sudden flush of beating wings, and holds a bird in hand, thankful for the meal it will provide. Distilling twenty seasons of grouse hunting into these essays, he writes of old dogs and gun lust, cover and clear cutting, climate change, companions male and female, wildlife art, and stumps. A Grouse Hunter's Almanac delves into the mind of a hunter, exploring the Northwoods with an eye for more than just game."Notable and quotable. Parman stakes out original territory and provides a vivid snapshot of the Northwoods."—John Motoviloff, author of Wisconsin Wildfoods: 100 Recipes for Badger State Bounties"Extremely rich and detailed. Parman puts forth original and genuine experiences."—Richard Yatzeck, author of Hunting the Edges

This book represents a fortunate combining of two opportunities. Tom Martinson, living on Minnesota's North Shore of Lake Superior, found a group of relatively docile ruffed grouse. Without concealment, he was able to follow these birds through the year obtaining an unparalleled collection of photographs of wild ruffed grouse as they went through their daily routines in the various seasons. A "labor of love" for Tom, he was particularly successful in recording the feeding and roosting activities of these grouse. This book is based on a long study of ruffed grouse biology and management. The study, basically an examination of how these birds are affected by forest-management activities, has been underway for more than a quarter of a century. It is based at the Cloquet Forestry Center, a University of Minnesota College of Forestry instructional and research facility 21 miles west of the west end of Lake Superior. While not actually on the North Shore, the Cloquet Forest is only 72 miles
