Book excerpt: Aged only five, Ron Ryder learned to hunt at his father's shoulder, in the forest and hills around Taupo. Eight years later, he found himself lost in the bush, calling on all that he'd gleaned about the hunting life to survive for four days with just his wits, a box of matches and his tursty 303 rifle. That baptism of fire only deepened his passion for the wilderness and a lifetime of adventure followed. In Yarns Around the Campfire, Ron introduces us to the legendary cast of characters who shaped his life as a hunter and guide. He has spent decades documenting his extraordinary experiences in the hope that the stories of the past will be preserved for future generations.
