Summary

How does it happen that a nice, upper-class city girl, born at the turn of the 20th century and raised to expect a life of pampered luxury, finds herself shivering in a frigid Saskatchewan duck-blind? Her husband, John Borden, was an avid sportsman, and she accepted his invitation to join in the action. So, the early-twentieth-century woman takes up upland bird shooting, waterfowling, fly fishing, and other outdoor sports. Adventures in a Man's World is a bracing collection of smartly crafted hunting stories
