Présentation de l'éditeur

To the majority of sportsmen love of nature is the principal element in the love of hunting. The pleasure of exercising skill in the finding and capture of game is really secondary to this, and still more subordinate is the flavor or size of the game. Thousands enjoy a stroll with the dog, out of season, almost as well as the real hunt. To please such, a book should be made up of selected charms of the field. These are, first and foremost, the nature of the game, its action and behavior. The mere form or size is of no more consequence than the flavor. Why the action of certain birds will give man more de Hght than that of others is one of natures secrets. We can only say it is charming; and describe it as we know it.
