Hunting Survival

His name is synonymous with high-stakes wilderness survival stories.

Hunt deer, antelope and elk. Safely handle dynamite caps and learn to smoke in a haystack.

"Big-Foot Wallace” is better known throughout Texas as an Indian-fighter, hunter, and ranger, than any one, perhaps, now living in the State; which is saying a good deal when the great number who have acquired more or less notoriety in that way is taken into consideration. Few men now living, I am confident, have witnessed as many stirring incidents, had more “hair-breadth escapes,” or gone through more of the hardships and perils of a border life.
