Synopsis

This book is a rich tapestry of essays on hunting and fishing written by Frank Forester, one of the earliest and most prominent American sporting writers. The author's prolific career in the mid-1800s helped to create a national literature on American field sports, and his works remain widely respected by sportsmen and enthusiasts today. In addition to spirited tales of hunting and fishing, Forester wrote touchingly of the natural world and of the value of conservation and woodcraft. This collection places the reader in the heart of a bygone era in American history when much of the country was still an untamed wilderness, and the pursuit of game was a vital part of life for many.
