Synopsis
Thirty shooting stories in pursuit of pheasant, mallard, geese, hares, mink, even an old wild goat, these modern tales involve bi-lingual dogs, an ignominious goose, red-letter days and disappointments, days on boglands, grouse moors, smart shoots and estuaries. Punt gunning, rough shooting and wildfowling, dawns and dusks and assorted brushes with ecstasy and near-death. Douglas Butler has an ear for a good shooting story and, as an inveterate shooter himself, knows just what curious, unexpected, dramatic things can sometimes happen when out in the fields, woods and marshes with fellow guns and dogs.

À propos de l'auteur
Douglas Butler, a Doctor of Zoology, teaches science at Tipperary's Rockwell College. In his book, Rough Shooting in Ireland, he writes with forthright enthusiasm about days with friends at local rough shoots: the gundogs, the approach to the different species, the behaviour of the birds, the hunting methods, predator control, habitat maintenance - all coloured by his lively interest in the history of Irish game shooting and his modern specialist knowledge of the quarry. He lives in Country Tipperary with his wife Margaret, and their family.
