Trained by a Hound Dog: An Acclaimed Hunter's True-Life Story

An Acclaimed Hunter's True-Life Story Ed Vance, acclaimed hunter and expert tracker, hunted mountain lions, bears, and bobcats in the mountains and forests of California, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and Montana for 25 years. Featured in Bowhunters Digest 1st. edition, Los Angeles Times West Magazine (1967), Saga Magazine (1968), Western Outdoors (1968), Bow & Arrow Magazine (1971), Bow & Arrow Magazine (1973), and Western Outdoors News (1968 - 1973), Ed Vance risked everything to follow his dreams, and without knowing it, chiseled a name for himself and for his dogs in the history of these places. The bond between the hunter and his hounds was one of deep trust and reliance, in a time when the changing landscape threatened to take it all. Trained by a Hound Dog recounts the legends of the hunt, in the authentic voice of the man who was there, told as if the reader were sitting with him around a campfire. The true stories he tells of his hounds and the lions and bears they caught in some of the country's toughest terrain and conditions are a glimpse into an era of Western History that has faded from view. "The old time way of hunting and peoples' views of country living was changing. Like it or not, it was coming. The old lion hunters that once roamed these hills, hunters like Jay Bruce, Charlie Leadshaw, or Howard Bilton, and others are now gone. All that's left of this, is knowing there was a time when they were here, and at that time there was only one way to get it done, and that was the hard way. Today they are only a part of history, a history that unfortunately cannot be duplicated." Ed Vance, Trained by a Hound Dog
