David McKay Company, 1930. Very Good/No dustjacket. In Very Good+ condition. 15 colored drawings by T. J. Rawlins. A New Edition with an Introduction and a Note on the Author's Game Register by Eric Parker, Shooting Editor of the Field. A beautifully illustrated work, originally published privately and gifted to acquaintances of the author in 1837. For many years this book was only found in catalogues and bought mainly by collectors, but it found significant popularity and appreciation a century later by a waning shooting community who found their way of life in decline along with the country estates in which they were often based. An interesting document of a world of 'country gentlemen' now largely the reserve of history…A classic work, which has a definite place in the history of the literature of shooting. It is the first treatise devoted solely to the subject of pheasant rearing, covert shooting, and the management of woodlands for the special purpose of preserving game. Read More
