Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Big Game Shooting On The Equator. By Captain F. A. Dickinson. Published by John Lane The Bodley Head in 1908. A First Edition. Size: 9 x 6 inches or 23 x 15.5 cms. Page number: 258. Hardcover. Green cloth boards with gilt lettering to the front and spine. Deckle edges. Cha…pters describing the hunting of different kinds of game animals; Zebra, Bush-buck, Hartebeest, Bohor Reed-Buck, Greater Kudu, Eland etc. are followed by To Maivasha after Duck and Snipe, A Day on the German Boundary, The Preservation of Big Game and Game Regulations. 77 black and white photographs illustrate the text. Condition: Very Good. The boards are a little marked and the corners slightly bumped. The spine is slightly faded and ragged at the top. The corners are bumped but not unduly worn. There is a mark at the base of the front board where I suspect a library sticker has been removed since there is a library sticker on the back end paper. The binding is broken at the back hinge and at the center of the book but otherwise secure. The pages, but for some marks that have to do with age and other small flaws, are clean and un-thumbed. One photograph is a little torn. The photograph opposite the frontispiece has been creased. A previous owners name, and details havebeen written in ink on the first end paper. There is no jacket. A heavy book. Postage may be more than stated if shipped outside of the U.K.

uncut throughout in the original drab boards with white paper spine, largely chipped, extremities bumped. Oblong 8vo (143 x 220 mm), pp. 139, with 19 engraved plates, several printed in portrait format but all bound in landscape, A lovely unsophisticated copy of this scarce manual relating to infantry formation, in which detaile…d instructions are given for the ?Eighteen Manoevres?, the basic standard of infantry drill as refined during the Napoleonic wars. The text is presented in diagrammatic form, taking each manoeuvre in turn and giving details on the Cautions and Commands to be given by Commanding Officers, the Words of Command by Officers of Companies and finally a column giving an Explanation for each command. Each section or Manoeuvre is illustrated with an engraved plate. The work is dedicated to Colonel David Scott of the First Regiment of Royal East India Volunteers, being the author?s - or compiler?s - commanding officer and it is followed by an Index of the various components of the manoeuvres. Dickinson?s visual presentation of infantry formation proved popular, running to a second (corrected) edition in 1799 and a third in 1803. ?It may appear to require some Apology on my Part, that not being a professional Military Man, I should venture to put my Name to this Publication: Were it to contain any Opinions of my own, upon Military Tactics, I might fairly be charged with Presumption; but I pretend to no other Merit than the Endeavour to arrange the Regulations, adopted for His Majesty?s Infantry Forces, in such a Manner as to render them more easy to the Learner?
