Excerpt from The Sportsman's Hand Book: Containing Rules, Tables of Weights and Measures, Concise Instructions on Selecting, Caring for and Handling Guns and Fishing Tackle and Many Other Hints and Instructions Useful to Beginners
This, on the face of it, is a book of reference and suggestions for the beginner. It is written for the young sportsman, not the old and experienced. Its object is not to advance new theories by excursions to debatable grounds, but to present the results of actual experiments, as well as facts established by more than thirty years' experience, together with admitted truths, all in a plain form. Details may appear somewhat dull, but clearness can not be accomplished by any other method.
The typographical arrangement of the book may appear somewhat fragmentary and broken. I have drawn from scientific reports, and have quoted the results of the experiments of reliable men and authors, for which due credit has been given.
