From the Introduction: I do not pretend to claim any literary merit for these plain, unadorned little sketches. There is nothing particularly striking about them; they do not bring to light any sensational revelations. They are just pages taken from the hunting diary of a man who loves open-air sport, and to whom Nature, grand and beautiful, is an inexhaustible source of delight and joy. Contents: An Elephant Hunt in Ceylon; A Tiger Hunt in India; Pig-Sticking; Shooting Alpine Ibex; A Fourteen-Pointer; My First Capercailzie; Stalking Roe-Buck in Silesia; Grouse Shooting in Scotland; Two Chamois Hunts; The Phantom Stag; Blackbuck Hunting; A Drive at Mirzapur; and A Hunting Expedition in the Ganges Delta.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
