Description

Great Britain: William Heinemann. Hardback. .Water stain to FEP and first page corner Illustrated with Wood-Engravings by Barbara Greg. This book gives all the ways known to the author of getting a rabbit, a hare, a partridge, a pheasant and a brown trout or a salmon. It describes how to run out and set a long net and how to hang a gate net, as well as the cunning ways of snaring rabbits, hares and birds. In it will be found lessons from Little Hugh, Black Bill, the man with the way of birds, Anton the gin setter, the Butcher, Jeck and the bold Francie McGinn. The timid man who has never poached before will walk in the ghostly shadows of cloudy moonlight, studying the shadow in the tree, crouching in the shelter of the firs, breathing the scents of the woods, resin and mouldering leaves, learning the ways of the hunting stoat. 133 pp.Sunned d/j spine(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
