Synopsis

Mick Badshot is dangerous to know. Unless you are a rabbit, pheasant, pigeon or deer he�s trying to shoot in which case you are utterly safe. He is a passionate and astonishingly unsuccessful field sportsman. He meddles in rough shooting, game shooting, wildfowling, stalking, falconry, ferreting, eel fishing, beagling and cider making. He takes the countryside gospel into schools, starts a mobile pet euthanasia service, has a market stall selling products made from road-kill, and takes his dog for psychoanalysis. And in return, this hilarious, wise, poignant, Pickwickian buffoon is loved by all who read about him. He appears each month in the columns of the Shooting Times, spouting buckshot and occasionally wisdom. Now his exploits are collected in a superb new book, each misadventure beautifully illustrated by James Wade.

� propos de l?auteur

Charles Foster is a writer and a port-soaked don at an Oxford college. He had various veterinary jobs, but had a poor bedside manner, and quickly tired of being kicked, gored and trampled in the early hours. Always indecisive, he then became a barrister, and can still sometimes be heard drivelling away to bored or outraged judges.

James Wade studied architecture at St John�s College, Cambridge and Harvard and worked in London until 1996 when he moved to Shrewsbury.
