âHistory Behind The Pieceâ This book was published by Outdoor Life in 1959 under the Popular Science Publishing Company in New York. Outdoor Life was one of Americaâs most influential sporting magazines, widely read throughout the mid-20th century for its writing on hunting, fishing, and conservation. This edition captures that golden era, combining fine illustrations with cultural commentary at a time when post-war America had a strong nostalgia for frontier traditions.
