PREFACE: The present volume comprises the 24 chapters which appeared between July 11th and December 26th 1896. I have aimed to make a sketch of the boy or man of whom i wrote, so that the reader, gentle or otherwise, would know him as I thought I did, and I find myself telling how to bob for eels, camp out and sleep in barns, kill deer with wooden plugs, taking my first trout on a worm, hunting turtles with Colonel Raymond in boyhood and reviewing his famous setters in after years, shooting turkeys, spearing eels through ice and many other things too numerous to mention, up to the time when i was glad to get home…… Its pages contain a wealth of information on various aspects of hunting. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900’s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
