Celebrated author, illustrator, Maine environmentalist and hunting enthusiast Dean Bennett writes a book that is half-memoir, half-history of a waning tradition, in Ghost Buck: One Man's Family and Their Hunting Traditions. Like the elusive giant buck that haunts the pages of this story, Bennett uses his formidable knowledge to add personal depth and poignancy to a tale of the erosion of public land use, the degradation of the environment, and the changing moirés of rural culture in the Northeast since the 1800's.
