This is Edward Breck's 1908 outdoor sports handbook, 'The Way of the Woods'. Originally intended for sportsmen in North-eastern Unites States and Canada, it has chapters on hunting cougars, grizzly bears, and other fauna native to that part of the world. It also deals with many other aspects of hunting from photography to trapping, making it ideal for anyone with an interest in the sport. Contents include: 'Cookery-Cooking-kits', 'Making Camp', 'Woodcraft', 'Nature Protection', 'Fishing', 'Sporting Firearms', 'Deer-hunting', 'Caribou-hunting', 'The Game of the North-west-Elk, Antelope, Mountain Sheep, Mountain Goat, Grizzle Bear, Cougar', 'Game Birds', 'Trapping', 'Photography', etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality, modern edition complete with the original text and images.
