With The Road to Yesterday you can relive
the time in America when trapshooting stars shared newspaper headlines with all
of the major sports heroes in the country. Times when every little town had at
least a one-trap gun club and thousands gathered to watch the outcome of live
bird matches. Women shot in dresses and men wore neckties.
Stories such as "Growing up in the game," "Colorful characters," "Annie Oakley stories," "The First Grand," "It ain't bragging if you can do it," and many many more.
If you are a trapshooting enthusiast this is a book of absolute joy!
