Synopsis

This is what I call my own true McCoy of book. By now I am sixty years young; I have spent my life time on mother nature's fields and her countryside. As I wrote my lifetime of stories I had to delve my mind deep back into my past having to recall what happened and how it happened and then writing it down into my story. Believe me, what true stories I do tell, I speak of how things were way back in time in yester-year, I also speak of an old retired head gamekeeper whose lifetime dates way back in time to the late eighteen hundreds and it is his own words that tell his story, telling of how his pheasants were reared the old-fashioned way, out in the rearing fields, speaking of his yearly cycle of all the four seasons, telling his story on the daring poaching he had on his estate, telling the true art of poaching and how it was done. If the poaching isn't in this book, then it probably doesn't exist at all! What a terrific story the old head keeper tells, a real eye-opener for the up-and-coming young keepers of today. Hardback, 500 pages together with my great, detailed sketches!
