Having already enjoyed his newspaper and magazine columns as a reader, it
was a genuine pleasure to actually work and write
alongside Joe Doggett for 23 years. During that
time, we became close friends and shared adventures
in some of the finest outdoor destinations on and
off the continent. His abilities in the field were
superior to those of most hunting and fishing
journalists we met, and that proficiency enabled Joe
to report as a confident participant rather than
simple observer.
As a writer, one of the qualities I most admire
about Joe is his ability to recreate sights and
sounds and smells and textures, to drop us into
places we've never been, with only words. At our
desks, we routinely exchanged ideas and challenged
each other creatively, and I always emerged from
those sessions a better writer.
The columns he selected for inclusions in this
book tell a variety of individual stories and, as a
whole., tell Joe's story. He is proud of them, and
rightfully so. Each contains pieces of his genuine
passion for wildlife and of his brilliantly creative
mind. |
