Inscribed by Buckner on the title page to his doctor in Flagstaff AZ. John Woolf O’Connor was born January 22, 1902, in Nogales, Arizona Territory. The timing of his birth allowed Jack to witness the end of the old West as well as the space age where men walked on the moon. Such mythical western figures as Buffalo Bill Cody, Annie Oakley, Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson and Geronimo were still alive and kicking when Jack was in high school. He taught English at the University of Arizona, and became its first journalism professor. His first love was the outdoors and writing about hunting, firearms, and the natural history of big game animals. As the longtime firearms editor for OUTDOOR LIFE magazine, O'Connor hunted and collected trophies throughout the world, and introduced millions of readers to hunting and firearms. O'Connor moved to Lewiston, Idaho in 1948 and he lived there until his death in 1978. With special contributions by Eldon "Buck" Buckner. Illustrated with numerous b/w photographs. 264 pages with an additional 32 pages of correspondence with Outdoor Life. Book and slipcase are both very good.
