It also includes chapters on behaviour in the field, the role of gundogs, the part played by gamekeepers in habitat and game management; it has a comprehensive section on quarry species and their identification illustrated in full colour. .This book should give confidence to those new to the sport as well as encouraging high standards of sportsmanship and respect for the countryside." .…
