Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Quarter brown cloth spine and patterned paper over boards with paste-on cover title label; 12mo; 32pp; illustrated with frontispiece drawing plus 2 head-piece vignettes. Tales of gunning partridge in the covers of southern New Hampshire-all without benefit of a gun dog. Claflin's theories… of dog-less hunting are of merit and he is not bashful about expounding on them. No limitation stated but doubtless published in a small edition, perhaps 100 copies or less. A prequel to his other upland shooting title "Partridge Adventures." This copy is in good condition with chipping to upper corner of both covers and text block, not affecting any text or images. Internally quite clean and bright bearing a signed presentation from Claflin in the year of publication. One small unobtrusive pencil notation in margin. Most uncommon as the OCLC locates but 3 copies of which 2 reside at Harvard. Inscribed by Author(s).
