Product Description
Nothing is more hated - and more misunderstood - by the trendy Left than hunting. But now intrepid hunter and pro-hunting activist Frank Miniter sets the record straight. In The Politically Incorrect Guide to Hunting, he details the concrete benefits that hunting provides to all of us - even how it helps the environment. Speaking with wildlife biologists, hunters, farmers, anti-hunters, and victims of animal attacks, Miniter explains how banning hunting negatively affects wildlife populations and conservation. Miniter's fearless, politically incorrect take on hunting lays out the facts that liberal enviro-radicals don't want you to know. If you love hunting, you need to arm yourself with The Politically Incorrect Guide to Hunting, so that the next time you encounter an anti-hunter, you'll be equipped to shoot down politically correct myths and defend this great American sport against all attacks.

 Excellent...the most awesome book I have ever read to explain to the world why hunting is needed & noble! November 24, 2008
So simple, so easy to follow, so full of powerful & irrefutable arguments that any antis who try to continue with their agenda (and they will) will be exposed for the nut jobs that they are, period.
Hunters are good, and we need them. August 9, 2008
Miniter's book is a fact-based treatment supporting what is perhaps man's oldest honorable occupation. Hunting has changed from it's earliest roots, but Miniter says that today's hunters are the real conservationists. Yes, it's counter-intuitive, but sport hunting never endangers animal populations; it keeps them stable and healthy so that everyone -- not just hunters -- can enjoy them.
And, hunting benefits more than just game species. Without deer hunting, songbird populations would plummet. What's the connection? Miniter gives example after example. Ban hunting and plant diversity suffers, soil erosion increases, and habitat disappears.
Miniter says that hunters pour more money into conservation than anyone on the planet, including "environmentalists," and he offers proof. Miniter claims that hunters have saved many species from extinction, and he provides the evidence. Miniter shows how hunters even play a role in keeping our air transportation system safe.
I discovered how serious that issue is last spring. As I sat beside a US Airways pilot on a flight to Alaska, he told me that colliding with animals is one of the greatest dangers during take-offs and landings. He said that few pilots haven't hit a deer or a goose.
Think it's bad when you hit one with your car? When an animal is sucked into the engine or goes through the windshield of an aircraft, they cause millions of dollars in damage. One goose can crash a plane and kill a whole flock of people.
Hunters are good, and we need them. They are the key piece to the wildlife management puzzle. Don't get your information about wildlife management from Animal Planet and the Disney Channel, where wild animals stay hermetically sealed behind the TV screen. Get it from the real world. A good place to start is The Politically Incorrect Guide to Hunting by Frank Miniter.
From a Swedish perspective May 12, 2008

This is a truly great book that all hunters should read. Hunting is threatened in all countries, despite the fact that the arguments for hunting are solid. The general public does not know enough about the effects of hunting, and tend to "vote against it" whenever they get the opportunity. This is an information gap that hunters need to close, by taking the discussions whenever and wherever we can. This book gives you ample arguments, in case you did not already have them. Also, it provides fun and interesting reading. As a Swedish hunter I am fascinated to discover that the situation is so similar across the Atlantic, but there are also some very specific issues that I had never herd of - like the aligator hunting. Thank you for an excellent book!
Great information for everyone... even hunters! April 21, 2008

Information is well presented and hits on the key points that everyone, including hunters, should know. I was pro-hunter before reading this book, but now I have even more reason to support this all-American tradition and sporting pastime. Reveals the anti-hunting groups for who they really are... arrogant elitists who believe "rights" are endowed by MAN (not by God). The book provides answers to all the anti-hunting arguments and also educates the public of the beneficial impact of hunting in areas of the environment and economy that are not widely realized.
Excellent book!
