Books by Stuart A. Marks

Drawing on data collected during his fieldwork among the Bisa continuing since the 1960s, Stuart Marks describes the changes that have occurred in hunting patterns, the sociological variables that govern an individual's decision to become a hunter, and the common cosmological convictions that hunters bring to their profession.

For many Southern men living in or close to rural landscapes, hunting is a passion. But it is not a timeless activity in a cultural void. This title provides an account of Southern hunting.
