Summary
"The cultural and historical significance of the hunt lies not in the hunt itself, but rather in the power of its resulting images. Pictorial evidence, beginning with the famous cave paintings in Altamira, continue to suggest that man represents himself as natural hunter and gatherer. This book explores modern images of the hunt and explains their places, functions and strength"--
