Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book takes the reader back to a time of relaxed sporting etiquette and camaraderie, before the advent of today's pressures and complexities in British shooting customs. It is a description of hunting in England in the mid-19th century, when shooting was still a form of pest control…undertaken on the large estates of the landed gentry, and game was plentiful. Readers are guided on thrilling shooting trips through forests, fields, and moors where the author fondly recalls stalking grouse, partridge, pheasants, snipe, and woodcock. The book examines the relationship between landowners, gamekeepers, and the rural communities that lived on their vast estates, providing commentary on the social upheaval of the period and the issues that arose around preservation of game and access to land for hunting. It concludes by acknowledging that preserving practices have, inevitably, changed since this idyllic time, but that the spirit and excitement of rough shooting remains as strong as ever. This book is an essential read for anyone with an interest in the history of shooting and hunting and in the social and economic evolution of the British countryside. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
