Sheep and sheep hunting

[heretohunt]

I am looking for a copy of jack O'Connors book titled "sheep and sheep hunting"
I would like a bit of a review of his book if anyone cares to, and suggestions of where to find it. Is it worth buying and reading?

It's a great book, I used to get it out of the library every couple years and read it again. I wish I had it in my library and I should probably pick up a copy. First editions are getting to be pretty expensive the last time I looked but you can find cheaper editions on ebay.

I have a copy of this book and I found it to be a great book. It is a mix of observations and experience with great stories of sheep hunts he has had. It is a book that I have, and will, read over and over.

I found my copy through Amazon.com and it does show up on Ebay from time to time. I got mine for $100. but have seen it go for much more so I would advise you to shop around and not buy the first one you find. IMO it is a great book for anyone interested in sheep and sheep hunting.

P.S. some libraries have this book as well.

Just looked on Abe Books at a first edition with dust jacket in fine condition and they are getting really expensive. 475$ US. Ouch!!!

I find it a little crazy that the price of a copy of his paperback is selling for more than his monthly salary at the time!:sign0161:

Its well worth owning. I've read mine many times over.

Still the best, in my opinion.Before the trophy phase of this hunting had taken over.He hunted sheep because he loved the wild places.Still, the reference book.

I guess there was an autographed copy at the Calgary gun show. buddy of mine would have liked it dearly, but 300. was too steep. :D Check out the Amazon prices for used copies and you'll choke as well. Wife scored me Lost classics for 3. at a yard sale. :lol:
