As a young boy, Buddy Levy accompanied his father on many a bird hunting expedition. Reflecting on his youth while staying firmly planted in the present, Levy sends forth a lyrical and honest look at the world of hunting the chukar partridge, a "gorgeous, complicated, strong-flying" bird. He explores the complex (and controversial) layers of hunting through powerful descriptions of the hunt itself, the natural history of the bird, the grueling physicality of upland pursuit, the companionship of a worthy bird dog, and thoughtful reflections on the enduring allure of sport hunting.
