wilds, and waters, threatens to exterminate all kinds of game, its advent may be
regarded as not unpropitious to the cause of the victims, and the support of the
most healthy and manly pursuit man enjoys on this earth.
The author has been careful to leave no part of his ground unbeaten. Advice,
instruction, illustration, are the leading points of the book. The lessons upon
Upland, Lowland, Bay, Marsh, and indeed all kinds of shooting, are most
admirably managed; as are also the more roving diversions of our Wild
Western Reserves. A considerable portion of the work is appropriated to the
consideration of the aids of the sportsman, THE DOG and THE GUN. The chapters
upon the dog are, perhaps, the most complete, instructive, and valuable
that have ever been written. Breed, training, field and kennel management
diseases, remedies, treatment, have the fullest benefit of eighteen years' study
and experience.
