Wild turkeys are mentioned often in early American history. Benjamin Franklin even championed the wild turkey rather than the bald eagle for recognition as our national bird. Although the wild turkey was once nearly extinct in North America, it has seen a dramatic population increase. Wayne's Turkey World is an illustrated guide to hunting for one of America's most popular game birds--"the king of the uplands." This complete book of turkey hunting examines all the tactics a hunter needs to take birds during the spring and fall turkey-hunting seasons. Every aspect of hunting the wild turkey is available in this book, which is backed by 60 years of experience.
