Rent Shades of Ecclesiastes: Essays from a Texas Sportsman

Synopsis

With spirited humor, thought-provoking anecdotes and witty connections to real-life, Jason Patterson weaves the story of his love for the hunt together, from its humble beginnings near his grandfather's home to early morning ventures, longing for more than just a fin or feather, but a deeper purpose for life. His journal of musings, as he transitioned from one hunting season to another, give the reader a front-row seat to the captivating beauty of nature, the challenging qualities of the animal species and how to find satisfaction when those two collide. The characters met are few, yet vital, ranging from a faithful dog named Cyrus, to best friends who helped pave the way for Patterson's passionate search to hunt with excellence. We are introduced to a compassionate wife, three energetic daughters and a family legacy that gave Patterson not only a foundation of faith and loyalty, but companionship, truth and delight. We experience each player in his chronicle as intricate pieces of the grand puzzle, setting a beautiful tapestry to complement the wonder of the outdoors. Be prepared to laugh, cry, be fascinated and find that individual place of solitude, in a search to not chase the wind mindlessly, instead, smile as it passes, knowing those places are permanent reminders of a journey worth living to the full.
