Provenance: Presenting the personal collection of Jack and Susan Reneau, two of the foremost contributors to the field of big-game hunting and record books. Jack worked for the Boone and Crockett Club as director of Big Game Records until his retirement. Additionally, he is a prolific writer and editor in the field with an excess of 60 B&C Club books. His education (MS in Wildlife Management) and vast experience merited his status as one of the foremost experts in his field. His wife Susan is also celebrated as an author and editor of 15 B&C Club books. She is famed in her journalism career with a total of 22 books on big-game hunting and American history. She also edited and produced more than 20 books on education and worked for many years as a host and producer of many radio shows. Susan's education (BS in Education and an MS in Business & Public Relations) and experience secured her respect in the field equal to her husband. Jack's collection includes thousands of books, most of which have been autographed by the authors and/or editors. The Reneau's have generously autographed the books they authored. What will also be available is a fine collection of railroad books belonging to Susan's grandfather (G. Murray Campbell) who headed the B&O Railroad until he retired in 1962 when the B&O railroad was sold. If lot is absent of a condition report one may be requested via email.
