Continuing with the same-style writing and in the same genre, Dr. A.W. Sibley gives his readers of Ain't Life 'a Hoot (Volume 3) an entertaining and "eye opening" look into forty-five years of elk hunting in the mountains of the great Rockies. Spanning the years of 1965 until the present, Dr. Sibley - along with his closest friends and relatives -has camped out and hunted from southern New Mexico to northern Idaho. The recounting of numerous hilarious stories and amusing anecdotes will keep readers of all ages laughing and smiling well after the last chapter has been read. Beginning with tales of his trips in central Colorado on the western side of the Rockies at a place called the Muddy Basin, Dr. Sibley remembrances of lifetime friendship formed will catch the attention of all readers. Many lifetime experiences and memories are formed in the most unique of situations and the recounting of "roughing it" hunting/camping stories that Dr. Sibley shares with his readers will make everyone who was not there also "roughing it" wish that they had been. Some of the real life characters that Dr. Sibley references in his book are also "real life heroes" and their traits of self-less character and heroism shine through in Dr. Sibley's words. Truly, Volume 3 of Ain't Life 'a Hoot is an outstanding, fitting completion to the trilogy of the true-life story of a farm boy that grew up in rural central west Louisiana. Dovetailing and fleshing out a few of the details of friendship and family mentioned in Volume 1 and Volume 2 of Ain't Life 'a Hoot, A.W. shares his thoughts on what a true friend really means and how important family is in this day and time.After one has read Volume 1 & 2, then reading Volume 3 is a must-do list item. However, Volume 3 of Ain't Life 'a Hoot also stands on its own as a truly excellent accounting of the past 45 years of superior hunting and camping expeditions in the great outdoors of the Western USA.
