Hunting the Dream is a candid memoir that traces the half-century history of Bowhunter Magazine (1971-2021) from a mere dream to eventual success as the largest, most successful and profitable archery/bowhunting periodical in the sport's long history. It's also a candid look at its founder, from Illinois small town roots to North American big game bowhunting success to his eventual induction into the Archery Hall of Fame (2003). There are hunting stories galore along with encounters and friendships with bowhunting legends.
Originally published in 2013, Hunting the Dream was recently reprinted in a limited quantity just in time for the Golden 50th Anniversary celebration of Bowhunter Magazine. As longtime fans of M. R. James already know, this is a veteran, award winning wordsmith who sold his first short stories and nonfiction feature articles to national magazines while in his late teens and early 20s. He also has worked for daily newspapers in Indiana and Illinois as a sports and city editor, and feature writer. James also has taught basic and advanced writing classes at three different Indiana universities.
The well-illustrated Bowhunting Gospel book is a collection of helpful and time-proven deer hunting techniques that is packed with beneficial information, tips, and no-nonsense advice. Its author is an award-winning journalist and successful deer hunter who arrowed his first whitetail buck in 1963 and published his first deer hunting book in 1978.
Bowhunting Gospel also includes a brief review of modern bowhunting/archery history and traces the evolution of modern equipment, as well as technology's impact on the sport. Whether readers are beginners or experienced deer hunters, and whether their choice is traditional or the latest in 21st century tackle, the book has something of interest and value.

Testimonials (Bowhunting Gospel)
"A good hunting book isn't written in the vacuum of one man's mind. It is a combination of articulating actual experiences with information gained from a variety of reliable sources. M. R. James has the miles, the writing experience, and the benefit of knowing the top whitetail bowhunters in the country— a combination that allows for a wide perspective and in depth discussion of tactics and methods to stir the imagination of the reader searching for something more."
– Tom Miranda, Bowhunter, Trapper, TV Host & Author
"M. R. James is a skilled writer, wonderful teacher, and inspirational mentor. His high ethical standards and contributions to America's bowhunting heritage cannot be overstated. He is truly one of bowhunting's founding fathers."
– Dan Schmidt, Deer & Deer Hunting
"When it comes to bowhunting, wildlife, and weaving a good hunting story, no one does it like M. R. James. Knowledgeable, experienced, and entertaining, he is someone to learn from."
– Larry Weishuhn, "Mr. Whitetail" Biologist, Outdoor Writer, Book Author, Speaker & TV Personality
"M. R. James truly needs no introduction to the bowhunting world. He is the Founder of Bowhunter Magazine, and most of us have followed his bowhunting tales from his hundreds of articles to a series of books. After 60 years of chasing whitetails, M. R. has penned yet another excellent book on whitetails, this magnificent member of the deer family, that will captivate the reader while offering advice from his six decades of chasing them. Sit back and enjoy!"
– T. J. Conrads, Founder Traditional Bowhunter Magazine
"Elected the 54th member to the Archery Hall of Fame, Class of 2003, bowhunter M. R. James brings his informational, creative, and inspirational writing to life in a way that readers feel they're standing beside him."
– Diane Miller, CEO, Archery Hall of Fame
"At the time the compound bow was revolutionizing the bowhunting world, M. R. James helped to energize that passion by offering a resource to help archery hunters learn their craft. Through the pages of his own creation, Bowhunter Magazine, M. R. brought experience, advice, and the expertise of other veteran deer hunting writers into the homes of bowhunters hungry for knowledge. I can think of no one more qualified to now share six decades of whitetail know-how."
– Curt Wells, Editor, Bowhunter Magazine
