by Tom Kelly

Overview

Tom Kelly's second book of essays, presumably about the bird, but there is so much more.. This time around Tom goes deeper into Wild Turkey hunting and the foibles of Southern folks. Tom writes about the Cobb family of L.A. " lower Alabama." Their hilarious antics will make you smile at the simple humor of their lives created in Tom Kelly's mind. Tom also introduces his daughter Laura as "the Colonel's daughter." Delightfully funny and always instructive, this book is another important installment in the Kelly legacy.

Editorial Reviews

"Like all the best "outdoor" writers, Tom Kelly's primary subject is the people who happen to spend time outside, and so his fine stories not only tell the truth about Alabama, but about all of us."

John Barnes

"The poet laureate of the wild turkey."

Jim Casada

"Kelly's gruff, self-deprecating humor is a welcome departure from the sentimentality that mars far too much of the sporitng game."
