For the past decade, Don Thomas's "Closing Time" columns in Ducks Unlimited magazine have received wide critical praise. Divided into five sections-Waterfowl, In the Field: Ducks, In the Field: Geese, Retrievers, and The Waterfowling Culture-this collection of those columns also includes eight chapters and five introductory essays that have not been published previously as well as photography by the author and his wife, Lori.
