Why read it?

1 author picked Meat Eater as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

If my book brings the perspective of a new hunter and old conservationist, then Meat Eater is the perspective of the old hunter and new conservationist.

A great book for the non-hunter to glean some perspective from someone who was born into hunting culture.
