Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book defends the Game Laws, arguing they are grounded in sound principles and benefit landowners, tenant farmers, yeomanry, and the poor. The author, a game preserver on his own lands and a magistrate over the estates of others, refutes claims that harsh punishments for poaching lead to murder, citing statistics and firsthand accounts to support his views. He also dismisses assertions that poaching is driven by hardship, emphasizing that most offenders are habitual criminals incited by the beer-shop culture. The author presents evidence that large, well-protected game preserves have a positive impact on local communities, promoting good behavior, reducing Sabbath-breaking, and providing employment opportunities. By highlighting the benefits of responsible game management and challenging misconceptions, this book offers a nuanced perspective on the historical debate surrounding the Game Laws. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331275732_0
