Description:

Antique decoys are among the hottest collectibles in the nation right now. With prime specimens commanding prices reaching well into the six-figure range, collectors see them as both an investment and a status symbol. Everybody wants them, but few can own the real thing.

Loy Harrell, one of North America's preeminent decoy authorities, has crossed the country to gather photographs and information on the most valuable and sought-after decoys. This full-color masterpiece displays the greatest decoys of a bygone era, tells about their history and in some cases discusses their value. One of the specimens went for more than $600,000 at a Sotheby's auction.

Hunting, antique and waterfowl enthusiasts will want this book not only as a display of great artwork, but also as a valuable reference tool for these American treasures.
-- Outstanding photographs of museum-quality decoys
-- Interesting historical notes concerning the best decoys on the continent
