Just finished Use Enough Gun by Robt. Rouark.

[Dusty Miller]

Hey, this book is a classic for good reason, its great reading, well written to boot.  My new copy cost $35 but I'm guess'n just about anybody could beat that by a wide margine at a used book store.

I read that many years ago but don't remember much. If you liked Rouark, find "The Old Man and The Boy". About his childhood in No. Carolina with his grandfather. He also wrote "The Old Mans Boy Grows Older". Great writter! Oh yes, "Horn of the Hunter" also!

Ruark was a master! I loved Use Enough Gun, Old Man and the Boy, the Old Man's Boy grows Older, and Robert Ruark's Africa.  I have read them so many times over that they are tattered.  Whether you could have found it for cheaper doesn't matter if you enjoyed it very much.

PS- Horn of the Hunter is a must read for anyone wishing to read about Old Africa. It is a true classic, and is still in print.

Rouark's "Old Man and the Boy" and a few others sit dust covered in my local library, waiting for free reading.  And worthwhile reading it is to any man who remembers growing up in the company of real men and learning real values for life and real respect for game. 

Sadly, much of that hard-learned value system has now been lost for so long that many of Rouark's  messages are perhaps incomprehensible to many of today's males.  Thus, his books sit unread and gather dust on old shelves.  Along with those of Hemingway, and the lesser but still giants such as Elmer Keith, Jack O'Conner, Francis Sell, Geo. Nonte, et al. 

Technology advances, society recedes.
