Default Books on hunting

Anybody have good books on hunting to recommend? I'm looking for a pretty broad range--from technical stuff (how to stalk or dress game; how deer move and act, etc) to the classic hunting writers of the past. Thanks in advance!

I just got a book, its about learning to use maps to try to predict travel patterns, It goes into great detail about what to look for on different types of maps, and why deer travel where they do and how they do. It is called Mapping Trophy Whitetails, and is by Brad Herndon. It has taught me tons about scouting with maps and deer travel patterns, and using terrain to my advantage, Now if I can properly use what Ive read in it.

If your interested in hunting whitetails "Shots at whitetails" by Lawrence R.Koller is one of the best hunting book ever written.

I agree with Texhunter this book covers all the basics (lots of pictures) and it seems pretty readily available. I found it for about $20 at Walmart (Canada)

Thanks for all the titles, folks! They all look good: I'm going to keep an eye out on ebay now.
