The abundant opportunities for hunting big game and other exotic species meant that many well-known sportsmen made their reputations on the plains and in hills of India, Burma and Ceylon.These two volumes cover hunting in the East, particularly India, at the beginning of the 19th Century. An outstanding feature of the books are the many superb colour illustrations taken from lithographs by the well-known animal artist Samuel Howitt. The text, by the military sportsman Captain Thomas Williamson, is of interest both to natural historians as well as to hunters, containing as it does the natural history and the hunting of the elephant, rhinoceros, tiger, leopard, bear, deer, buffalo, wolf, wild hog, jackal, wild dog, and the civet. The field sports celebrated in these books may have gone out of fashion in our âpolitically correctâ age, but these memoirs and the many coloured plates are an item for the collector to treasure.

Paperback. Near Fine condition. Not Inscribed. 168 pages. One Chaplain's journey across the Battlefields of Afghanistan. People today are bombarded with news about the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Yet more often than not, this news is grim and void of anything positive to report. Now more than ever, we need to hear that God is still faithful to His word at going before our brave men and women in battle, equipping them to be strong and courageous in the face of adversity. Bringing Courage to the Courageous gives an up-close view of the unique role that chaplains play in a unit deployed to a combat zone. Take a journey and see how God works in and through the lives of our brave men and women in uniform and what they sacrifice on a daily basis to keep our nation free, and come away knowing that miracles still happen on the battlefield today.
