Guys:

Col. Tom Kelly certainly needs no introduction to this group. Elevated by acclimation to "poet laureate" of turkey hunting books. His books are the cornerstone of a turkey hunters bookshelf.

Here are his first five books. All are in pristine condition, read once and put away. Some are first editions and some are getting very hard to find. All have been signed by the author and are highly collectable.

Will be shipped via USPS media mail with tracking numbers. Ask any questions via PM please.

What editions are these?

Thank you for the question. I will answer it this way: "IF" I had a Ph.D. degree in Library Science, there might be some easy answers out there. But I don't. So I will give it my best effort.

#1 TENTH LEGION His first and most famous book and has been reprinted many times. This book was printed in 1998, Lyons Press, which makes it the second edition.

#2  DEALER'S CHOICE  Lyons Press, 1998, which makes it the second edition.

#3,#4, and #5. From the publishers names and dates published, I believe, to the best of my knowledge, these three are First editions. I bought some of these directly from Col. Kelly at his booth at NWTF Conventions during those years when they were published.

Hope this helps.
