ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1919). 1919 1st edition. Large 8vo (140 x 225mm). Ppxii,298,ad. Illustrated with b&w plates from photographs & drawings by the author. Red cloth, spine titled in black. Spine faded & gilt dulled. A good copy. From the author's introduction - "This book describes incidents of my own life and in the lives of others I have known; travels in search of big game and Natural History; letters of strange interest by all kinds of men living in many lands; sidelights on the Great War, in fact a conglomeration of anything in life that might prove of interest to men and women who move about and do things a little out of the ordinary ruck. They have been set down rather as the spirit moved me to write, and if somewhat disjointed, I trust they will appeal to other rovers like myself. If variety is the spice of life, perhaps even such tales as these may find their readers amongst those who have followed the open road." Lengthy chapters on salmon fishing in Iceland and in Scotland, together with reminiscences of sport in the author's youth and chapters of game shooting, wildfowling, deer-stalking and big game hunting. "His chapter on 'Scottish Salmon Fishing' recounts capturing 21 salmon averaging 21lb. in three days on the Murthly beat of the Tay in October 1889." (Adams). .
