Description ▲
This is the story of how a family farm is saved from the inevitability of "development." It becomes, instead, the headquarters of the New England Ruffed Grouse Research Foundation. Engagingly told over the first four years of a pair of Brittany's lives, and the burgeoning romance between teo of its human characters, The Sons of Thunder will delight, amuse and inspire conservationists, dog lovers, grouse hunters, naturalists-all who enjoy the outdoors, especially New England and the North Woods. The story is so firmly underpinned by the accuracy of the biology it could well serve as a handbook for similar endeavours.
