Thank you for posting this. I received a copy of The Upland Shooting Life in 1971, when I was in Viet Nam, and about wore it out before I came home. Although I loved George's writing, I never owned an Old Hemlock dog, going instead to Britts and Pointers, including one National Amateur Grouse Champion. Fortunately, I've been able to hunt A Lot, but George Bird Evans has been an inspiration to me and an ideal for me.
