About this book

This vintage book contains a complete manual for the sportsman, game preserver, gamekeeper, and amateur on the art of taking animals and birds in traps, snares, and nets. Profusely illustrated and full of invaluable tips, this timeless handbook will be of considerable utility to modern readers, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "Animal Trapping and Snaring", "The Dorset Trap and Its Varieties", "Humane Traps", "Tools, Etc., For Trapping", "How To Set The Dorset Trap", "Round And Small Steel Traps", "How To Set Round And Small Vermin Traps", "Rabbit Trapping", "Trapping Ground Vermin", "Rats", "Wild Cats", "Poaching Cats and Dogs", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
