And, to be blunt, no one in the latter part of the 20th century wrote about them so eloquently and with such passion." - Terry Wieland, Shotgun Life "Michael's brilliance with the English language - 'words' as he called them - ushered in the renaissance in fine guns. He could capture their appeal like no one else, and speak to our hopes and aspirations and to fine days afield with good friends and great dogs." - Vic Venters, Sporting Classics "McIntosh has the knack of describing scenes with a vibrancy usually reserved for the visual arts." - Bruce Buck, Shooting Sportsman
