Follow Your Arrow… and join the adventure!
A lifelong native of Michigan, Judy Black has always loved the thrill of hunting, the beauty of nature and the joys of camp life. So when she wrapped her hands around her first bow on Christmas Day 2003, she discovered her true passion.
An exciting read for hunters, adventurers and nature lovers alike, Follow Your Arrow chronicles sixteen years of Judy’s bowhunting adventures – the triumphs and challenges, the highs and lows, and the special moments in between.
Travel with Judy around the world to hunt majestic animals and meet incredible people along the way. Join her as she sets her sights on whitetails at her own camp, wild hogs in the Texas brush, big cats in snowy British Columbia, bears in Saskatchewan bush, musk ox in the frozen Arctic, stags and goats in breathtaking New Zealand, exotic game on the African savanna and more. Walk in her boots as she climbs mountains, fords streams, crosses bogs, and pushes herself beyond her physical and emotional limits.
Much more than a hunting and traveling memoir, Follow Your Arrow is a call to get out and experience the great, wide world full of beauty around us.

A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice
A Publishers Weekly and New York Public Library Best Book of the Year
Named a Most Anticipated Book of the Year by The Millions and Literary Hub
An award-winning historian shows how girls who found self-understanding in the natural world became women who changed America.
This beautiful, meditative work of history puts girls of all races—and the landscapes they loved—at center stage and reveals the impact of the outdoors on women’s independence, resourcefulness, and vision. For these trailblazing women of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, navigating the woods, following the stars, playing sports, and taking to the streets in peaceful protest were not only joyful pursuits, but also techniques to resist assimilation, racism, and sexism. Lyrically written and full of archival discoveries, Wild Girls evokes landscapes as richly as the girls who roamed in them—and argues for equal access to outdoor spaces for young women of every race and class today.
“Thoroughly absorbing.… A beautiful synthesis of diverse women’s experiences, combining history with memoir and a call to action.” —Jill Watts, New York Times Book Review
