I have always been a fan of ''Big Al'' Lester's books; I find his writing style very Crumpish.

His own outrageous and often hilarious hunting tales dried up a book or two back and more recently he has mostly been presenting other people's stories and half-truths.

If you enjoyed kicking back with a comic as a kid and take political correctness with a grain of salt, then settle in for an enjoyable read with quite a few chuckles.

If you have not read his earlier books, then I suggest you track them down; they were even better.
