Hilarious and heartwarming stories of outdoor mishaps and misadventures from The New York Times five-time bestselling, beloved humorist, Patrick F. McManus, a writer who makes people laugh out loud, hard (The New York Times).

Among the twenty-five hysterical stories gathered in They Shoot Canoes, Don't They? are the true but little known history of the discovery of live bait by Genghis Khan's chef, an examination of the fanatical expertise required for ice fishing, and a consideration of the circumstances that can cause a deer to ride a bicycle.

Outdoor enthusiasts of all skill levels will also appreciate McManus's Hunter's Dictionary, an invaluable guide to such terms of art as Ooooooeee-ah-ah-ah! (If there's one thing I hate, it's putting on cold, wet pants in the morning) and Baff mast pime ig bead feas mid miff pife! (That's the last time I try to eat peas in the dark with my hunting knife!)

Including classic stories such as The Sensuous Angler and My First Deer, and Welcome To It.
