Synopsis
The author has provided the enthusiastic shot with a very readable book on the practical aspects of the type of shooting enjoyed today by thousands of modern sportsmen. Curiously this approach is unusual, for most books on shooting seem to have been written by upper-class ex-military gentlemen, living in a world of grouse moors and servants, concerned that 'chaps' should steer clear of cheap foreign guns. Every aspect of shooting is examined in detail from the selection of the gun to skinning and cooking the 'bag'. There is a wealth of information but the author's skill and enthusiasm ensure that the book makes fascinating reading both for the beginner and experienced shot alike. Nobody could fail to learn from this this book.
