Book Review: The Art of Pishing
Summary: 5 Stars
Pete Dunne teaches us how to Pish in this Book - I have seen many people pishing, but Pete refines the Art. It is funny, helpful, and historical. It is a useful tool and good reading. In addition, you get a CD you can listen too. It is a funny, pertinent, intelligent discussion of Pishing. Driving during one birding expedition, I played it for my birding group. The Group was thoroughly entertained and we got a lot of good laughs in the process; Pete Dunne is a good entertainer.
