ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1892). (1884) 1892 2nd edition. Small 8vo (125 x 185mm). Ppviii,248,24pp ads. B/w illustrations by J. Charlton & H. Tunaley. Brown end-papers. Maroon cloth, silver gilt stag's head vignette to upper board, upper board and spine titled in silver gilt. Ex W.H. Smith & Sons Subscription Library. Usual faults, working copy only. "The wild red deer in the West of England have so largely increased in numbers recently as to occupy a very different and far more important position in the fauna of the country than used to be the case." Richard Jefferies brings us up to date, to time of publication (1884), with a detailed account of the natural history, and the chase, of the Exmoor red deer. Chapters include: Red deer land; Wild Exmoor; Deer in summer; Antlers and fern; Ways of deer; Tracking deer by slot; The hunted stag; Hind-hunting; A manor house in deer land; Game notes and folklore. Actually quite relevant, and a good read, as ever with Richard Jefferies. The second edition was the first to include the illustrations by J. Charlton and H. Tunaly. .…
