Please Buy This Book
By Bill Heavey
Christmas, the season of obligation, will shortly be upon us. This year, give the people you love If You Didn’t Bring Jerky, What Did I Just Eat? (Atlantic Monthly Press), a best-of collection of stories by me, Bill Heavey, probably the baldest man ever to write for Field & Stream. My range is astounding, from fishing all the way to hunting. Plus I offer foolproof strategies for calling in sick to work. As a semi-gainfully-employed writer spending way too much money on scent-reducing soaps, sprays, and lotions, I’m begging you to buy a few copies. $23; available wherever books are sold/ -- Bill Heavey

thanks mr. heavey for a wonderful book. i just bought a copy and i really appreciate your honesty it makes me feel better to know that i am not the only one out there who screws up. all the other outdoor books i have read (and there are a lot of them) do not compare. great read.
I throw my copy at everyone who comes in the door and tell them to pick a story and read it. All smiles and laughter. I was just getting ready to write a Jeer as to why F&S hadn't bound copies of all your back page stories. Great timing! Great Book. Thanks again!
the web is an amazing thing. you can already buy a "lightly used" copy of a book that has not yet been officially released.my mother said she liked it and would have bought a copy even if i weren't her only son.i think she's lying.
$14.86 on Overstock.com, although it says the book is not released yet. I'll probably get a copy for my Dad for Christmas.
If it's not at your local book store its also available at Amazon.com for $16.
sounds like a good book I'll buy it if I can find it
I just finished reading the book.If you like the articles in the back of F&S you'll love the book. Plus Heavey has to be the only person on the planet who's hunting stories can make me look successful.
Bill,I'm going down to the bookstore just below my office in an hour to go pick up your book; if I can find it. I love your articals and I am sure you book will be just as great.Nathan
