Contact seller5-star sellerTall 8vo. xvi, 292 pp., plus 2 pp. publisher's ads. Photo frontisp., 44 photos and plates, 1 large folding map in rear pocket. Green publisher's cloth, gilt lettering front cover & spine, simulated Zebra skin endpapers (minor bumping to corners, edgewear, slight spotting on the spine), still VG copy. First edition of this excell…ent early account of hunting on the Kenai Peninsula, including descriptions of Alaskan Native Americans, salmon cannery operations, and more. Radclyffe had acquired a permit from the Bureau of Biological Survey with the USDA in order to collect big game specimens for the British Museum, and the account was dedicated to a longtime fellow hunter and friend, Theodore Roosevelt. The author details his experiences with hunting Alaskan Brown Bears, Grizzly Bears, Moose, Dall Sheep, and running afoul of the zealous US Deputy Marshal Sexton, a stickler for the new game regulations instituted on the Kenai in 1903 (not to mention destroying the distilling operation of Alaskan hunter & miner Andrew Berg). He managed to survive a charging bear sow after being abandoned by his guide as well as the Alaskan courtroom, but his companions were not so lucky as the judge ruled that the permit did not extend to the hunting party. Radclyffe returned later to hunt Alaska on the Kenai in August, 1910 employing Andrew Berg as his head guide. See: Catherine Cassidy, Alaska's No. 1 Guide: The History and Journals of Andrew Berg, 1869-1939, pp. 28-29, 38.
