NO PLACE LIKE HOME

Ken Bailey has written what we all feel...No Place Like Home. Nobody else could have accomplished this. No other Canadian outdoor writer is so amply qualified in every regard. No other Canadian outdoor writer has the combination of experience, wisdom and word-wise eloquence to create an iconic work like No Place Like Home. Trust me. For the hunter and the fisherman, there really is no place like home. 

- Jim Shockey, world-renowned hunter, conservationist, television personality and outdoors communicator.

 In our shrinking world, increasing numbers of Canadian anglers and hunters are travelling the globe to hunt and fish. What many overlook is that Canada offers some of the best fishing and hunting experiences to be found anywhere.

In this book, the author takes the reader from coast to coast to coast as he recalls some of his many outdoor adventures in Canada. From trout and grayling to Arctic char and Atlantic salmon, and from our great bears to moose, waterfowl, pheasants and more, active and armchair outdoorsmen alike will find a story, or several, that resonate with them.

This book is a throwback to the days when avid outdoorsmen enjoyed "a good read." It isn't a how-to or where-to book, although you'll undoubtedly learn a thing or two, and the many stories cover nearly every corner of our country; it's intended to be a fireside reader to be savoured as you sip your favourite beverage in front of a roaring fire and recall your own outdoor experiences.
