The author also shares his thoughts on the ethics and responsibilities of hunting, as well as his observations on the natural world and the behavior of ducks. The book is illustrated with numerous black-and-white photographs and drawings, depicting scenes of hunters in action, ducks in flight, and the landscapes and environments of the hunting grounds.

This l)ook is jtresented to the siiortsmeii aiid (hick huntors of America as the combination of the efforts of several writers. It is a council of the experts. Former works of this character gave a description of the plumage of wild-fowl. I think I have adopted a far better plan by giving a colored plate of the bird in its natural colors. I have also added plates of several other of our principal game birds besides wild-fowl. I have to thank the following writers for assisting me: Ernest McG affey, Victoria, British Columbia. Ross KiNER, Prophetstown, I llinois. R. P. Holland, A tchison, Kansas. J. F. Parks. Hot Springs, South Dakota. Herbert K. Job, West Haven, Connecticut. Edmund W. Weis, M. D., Ottawa, I llinois. Flossie Ray, Olive Hill, Kentucky. George Tj. Hopper. Buckabush, Washington.
