About this book
This vintage book contains an assortment of hunting poems, anecdotes, and tips. Instructive and entertaining, this volume is highly reconnected for modern hunting enthusiasts, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Farmer's Cap", "Precious Moments", "Tit for Tat", "Jumpers", "A Good Hunter", "The Dispersion of the Priors Curreich Flock", "Hints to Budding Sportsmen", "'Granite'", "'Carpe Diem'", "Men who Hunt, and their Peculiarities", "A Bruiser", "Old Bob", "Cub Hunting", and more.
