Peg leg- here are ones I can think of at moment;
Cory (lion hounds, bear tracker)
Hibben, Indian Hunts
Lewis, silent crossing
Barker, when the dogs bark treed
Cameron, call of the hounds
Nance, Treeing Walker History and Memories
Almeida, jaguar Hunting Grosso
Shelley, hunting big game with dogs in Africa
Kibler, Lion Tales
Mathes, Brave
I'd like to trade for titles I need (Carl Johnson, Leo Dollins, Elmer Goble, Don Greene, gene Lewis)

Have any if you hound book collectors ever heard of an author by the name of Fred Gipson? I have a book called Hound-Dog Man published in 1947. Just curious as to how popular/rare this book might be. The cover is in bad shape but the book itself is in excellent condition for its age.
Thanks

I don't know that I have ever seen that particular book, but Fred Gipson is the author of Ol' Yeller and Savage Sam.

Hound dog man is pretty common, although first editions with nice dust jackets are less so. I'm glad you reminded me about that one--I've actually never read it.

Thanks for the input. It's been a good book so far. Haven't had much time to read lately so I haven't made it very far into the book yet. Seems to be pretty good writing. Is a book like that, even with a bad dust jacket worth anything?

First editions--depending on condition--from 15-50$.
