OutdoorsSimon and Schuster, 15 de juny 1990 - 368 pàgines Bryant has been writing a column called "Outdoors" for the New York Times for over 20 years. Though he states in the introduction that he tackles current environmental issues, he's left them out of this anthology, choosing instead the more timeless and universal pieces. The topics, presented in an evocative style with subtle wit, are arranged seasonally. For example, spring concerns include trout fishing and an outdoorsman's spring cleaning. The pieces deal mostly with hunting and fishing, with an occasional foray into television reviewing and literary criticism. ISBN 0-671-69372-7 (pbk): $10.95. |
