A propos du livre

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Although the book is a manual for the hunter, with characteristic humor and a certain disdain Hooper gives a full picture of the gentlemanly sport of hunting--as clearly distinct from hunting for food--in all aspects including hunter, weaponry, and sporting dogs.
