Excerpt from The Sportsman and His Dog: Or Hints on Sporting
Stances, however, which would be uninter esting to the public, induced me some months since to recur to the subject of the book in question, which was most kindly forwarded for my perusal. I therein found so much excellent matter as regards the truest natural history, and such thoroughly good sporting notions, intermixed with so many amusing anecdotes so well and so piquantly told, that I humbly ventured to translate the whole into English, with the assurance that such portions of it as may not be acceptable to the experienced sportsman as a matter of interest, could not fail to be so to the inex perienced, who will gain therefrom abundant and excellent information, from which he will be enabled to put theory into practice.
