Just found a copy (in the most obvious place) and it is a trip down memory lane. Huge set with tons of photos from the good old days forward. https://www.corlanes.com/rampages-trilogy-of-alaskas-great-white-dall-by-le.html

Personally,I'd order from Lewis direct. He ships FAST and fair. Hint. Rampages Direct RINKPard I worked with,gunned 84 of the frames in the trilogy and is a fhuqking Hard Core LEGEND. I had him and Lewis sign mine. Hint...............

Yeah, he's out in Palmer. Has been to several of the gunshows. I talked his ear off at the Wasilla show a few years back and momma got me the books shortly after.
It is an amazing collection, and just a hell of a piece of work.

Sheep never made a flying fhuqk to me,but I've more than a few pards that NEED Therapy. Hint.(grin)
He fell into that gate way niche,which recognized that one was in Rare Air and he documented same. Few have the forethought and the gumption remains genuine. Hint.
Simply a great guy,with an unequalled collection of magnitude. Hint.
Do it..............

Lewis is THE legend.
Rampages is an amazing set of books. The dedication and drive he put into the writing the trilogy is the same determination that made him the sheep hunter he is.
I believe he's working on volume 4 now.

If you are a sheep hunter – or have ever dreamed of hunting sheep in AK - this is a requisite set.
As has been said above, just an amazing body of work.

I couldn’t really get excited for sheep myself but the story sounds wicked.

Met Mr. Bradley today in fact. Yep, a wealth of information for certain. He is working on his next two volumes for the end of his series and intends to see them published around December 2023. He does have copies of his three volume set available for ~$350 for these massive books with many high quality photos.

Talked sheep with the author today. Great set of books! A serious sheep hunter told me that he was serious went thru 3 wives over it! He has a huge collection of Brooks range rams.
