Maps, b/w plates. Red cloth, spine titled in gilt. Slight use, cup-rings to boards, browning to edges. Cup-rings to slightly used and frayed dust-wrappers. "With An Introduction By Sir Ralph Payne-Gallwey, Bart. In Two Volumes." Reprinted from the first edition of 1893, edited by Sir Ralph Payne-Gallwey. A keen military officer and sportsman throughout his life, Colonel Peter Hawker not only enjoyed the challenge that technical innovation and adaptation of certain sporting guns brought him, he was also at leisure, with large, independent means and numerous people at his command. If he had a whim to go gun punting even in the severest of weathers, he was able to. For most of his adult life Hawker wrote a diary, extracts of which - on sporting subjects - were published posthumously. What his diary details is the 'gentleman's pursuits' in game shooting and fishing, with numbers bagged and techniques used, but also the social obligations of a man of his class and the fact that if he did go out punt gunning in the worst weather, he would suffer from a chill for the next few days, but then, he could always afford the doctor! .
