- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5One of the best books I have read. Loved the humor, drama and spirit! Thank you
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I thoroughly enjoyed this book! Multiple adventures that kept me coming back for more! I appreciate that Rocky included tid bits of Christian based beliefs in his story. That is what this country needs now more than ever. Hunting, fishing, adventures and enjoying Gods creation go hand in hand.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5this was a great book, I loved the stories of the close calls of death Rocky experienced.
