Book Description
Louis Friedrich had no idea back in 1939 what he was creating when he purchased property in Michigan and built a hunting camp he called Singing Hills. It was just a rustic cabin in the woods, but over time it grew roots into the heart of an entire family. Learn about the colorful characters that have graced the camp over the years in this hunting camp memoir. Hear the rich and funny tales from days past about poachers and pranks, bears and bucks, and even voices from the great beyond. The author's life was upended at age 3 when his mother died and he had to leave home and live with relatives. The hunting camp was his rock throughout an unconventional childhood. It also served as a bridge to maintain his relationship with his father, and later in adulthood, his own son. Join the author on a journey that will make you laugh and cry. "That Hunting Camp" will show you how a cabin in the woods can mean so much more to a family than one could ever imagine.

Book Description
Meet the Jolly Boys—five men from northern Wisconsin who built a deer hunting shack in 1955 and established a tradition that has now lasted over six decades. Hunting Camp 52, affectionately known as Blue Heaven, is a place where every trail, rock, and ravine has its own nickname; every kill is recorded by hand on a window shade; every hunter happily croons along during evening songfests; and every rowdy poker game lasts late into the night. The outhouse is always cold, the porcupines are always a problem, and the vehicles are always getting stuck in the mud, but there’s nowhere else these men would rather be. In Hunting Camp 52: Tales from a North Woods Deer Camp, John Marvin Hanson—the son of one of the original Jolly Boys—recounts the sidesplitting antics, the memorable hunts, and the profound camaraderie that has developed over almost sixty seasons at Blue Heaven. Hanson also includes more than twenty recipes for gourmet comfort foods prepared each year at camp, from pickled venison hearts to Norwegian meatballs to the treasured recipe for Reali Spaghetti. As the Jolly Boys age and younger generations take up the mantle of Blue Heaven, Hanson comes to appreciate that hunting camp is not about bagging a trophy buck as much as it is about spending time with the friends and family members who matter most.

Book Description
In Mississippi Hunting Camps: A Way of Life author Bill R. Lea vividly captures with words and photographs the unique phenomenon of hunting camp life that prevails in the Magnolia State, a way of life that involves family, fellowship, food, fun and faith. Traveling several years to numerous camps—a privilege rarely given to outsiders—Lea was afforded an insiders look at camps ranging from the exclusive “high dollar” to the “Bubba” camps, from large to small, from new to historic and from white to black where he found commonalities among all, allowing him to give the reader a rare insight into why hunting camps in Mississippi are truly “A Way of Life.”

Book Description
For readers of The Stranger in the Woods and H Is for Hawk, a beautifully written and emotionally rewarding memoir about a father, his three sons, and a scrappy 100-acre piece of land in rural Michigan. Some families have to dig hard to find the love that holds them together. Some have to grow it out of the ground. Bruce Kuipers was good at hunting, fishing, and working, but not at much else that makes a real father or husband. Conflicted, angry, and a serial cheater, he destroyed his relationship with his wife, Nancy, and alienated his three sons-journalist Dean, woodsman Brett, and troubled yet brilliant fisherman Joe. He distrusted people and clung to rural America as a place to hide. So when Bruce purchased a 100-acre hunting property as a way to reconnect with his sons, they resisted. The land was the perfect bait, but none of them knew how to be together as a family. Conflicts arose over whether the land-an old farm that had been degraded and reduced to a few stands of pine and blowing sand-should be left alone or be actively restored. After a decade-long impasse, Bruce acquiesced, and his sons proceeded with their restoration plan. What happened next was a miracle of nature. Dean Kuipers weaves a beautiful and surprising story about the restorative power of land and of his own family, which so desperately needed healing. Heartwarming and profound, The Deer Camp is the perfect story of fathers, sons, and the beauty and magic of the natural world.
