Description

This is Jericho Walker's story, the story of an old black man who skins the deer other people have killed. He's seen it all and heard it all, and if he had the education and the desire, these would be the stories he'd tell. Through old family secrets, opinions, gossip, and history we learn about Jericho's family and the family of Boss Bishop, the white landowner he works for, This is a richly woven story filled with lovingly depicted characters and arresting descriptions of the land, hunting, and the South.
