Autumn Passages is an exclusive collection of waterfowling stories compiled by the editors of Ducks Unlimited magazine. Here are tales eclipsing generations of duck and goose hunting, from reminiscences of battery box shooting in the 1800s to yarns of contemporary gunning in flooded timber and saltwater ponds; from harrowing adventure narratives to humorous incidents and intimate essays on wildfowling; and featuring a host of locales including Louisiana marshes, Chesapeake Bay, Minnesota rice lakes, Delta Marsh, and the wheatfields of Alberta. The authors of the unparalled collection are as varied as is tales. Some of the writers are or were well known conservationists and outdoor scribes, others one-time authors - baymen, guides, and ordinary hunters - with an intense passion for waterfowling and who, in the course of their hunting, have experienced absorbing adventures.
