Well thought out, well researched, and well written. McCaulou walks her readers through her precise movements toward becoming a hunter, holding middle-ground tension the whole way. Her careful reasoning of both sides of the issues of gun ownership, envirnmental conservation, and responsible hunting are clear and rational, and personal. This is a great read for anyone new to hunting as an activity, or just a looking for a balanced debate of the issues.
