About this Item
Description:
pp. 96. 8vo., measuring 6" x 9". Mustard-yellow, textured, twice-stapled card covers bearing an image of a moose in black-and-white to the centre of the front cover. Richly illustrated with many photographs, portraits, illustrations, etc. Lightest rubbing to the covers, one very faint spot to the centre of the front cover, contents remain bright, clean, and unmarked with tight, sound stapled binding. Rare in commerce, particularly in a SIGNED edition. Corresponds to OCLC #13290540 indicating only but one institutional holding at time of cataloguing. SIGNED, and dated in ink by the author to the title page. The author of this book has related factual stories of wildlife and big game hunting as he remembers back to the years of 1894 on being then a boy of four years. There may be a slight error in one or two of the dates as no record was ever kept. The nature of the writings might lead the reader to believe that big game was taken for sport or even unlawfully but back in the pioneer days of the 1890's and early 1900's, the people hunted big game for their meat supply for their large families. Times were hard and money scarce, so cattle or finished hogs were sold to get cash. In reading this book you will read about moose, elk, mule deer, jumping deer, camp life of hunters, lady hunters, lost hunters and many stories of interest to the reader who loves the outdoor life.

Paperbound. Condition: Very Good. 2nd Edition. pictorial paper wraps, xviii, 264, illustrated throughout with b & white illustrations from photographs, 2 pp bibliography, minor curl to cover, edge wear , A much needed work on the development of the business of big game hunting in New Brunswick. All the great hunting guides are here. their stories told in detail. The hunters are here .Babe Ruth , the wealthy American businessmen who were the first to visit the wilderness of big game , caribou, moose, deer. A well researched, well illustrated book , a great delight for lovers of the outdoors. From the Prologue ----- New Brunswick has a history rich in stories, tales and images of its famous salmon rivers, and the sports and guides who plied their waters but little attention has been given to the sport of nonresident big-game hunting. I have written this book to address that neglect. Although it is intended primarily for the enjoyment of the hunter, it should also appeal to those who accept the sport and share the pleasures of a bygone era captured through the camera's lens and the pen of those who walked the trails before. There were many early guides and sports whose accomplishments are now forgotten - victims of the ravages of time. Living relatives are several lifetimes removed and it is with these descendants that the photographs, artifacts and stories are entrusted. But with each new generation bonds with the past are fading; personal ties to dusty and tattered photo albums with nameless faces, worn maps and soiled journals weaken. Most photographs and written accounts of hunting in the early years of the 20th century were left to us by American sportsmen - the paying clients. They brought with them their guns, cameras, pens and diaries and later, in the comfort of their homes, wrote about their hunting adventures in the great Canadian wilderness. Some of their articles appeared in popular outdoor magazines and journals of the day. Others were personal accounts of a particular hunting trip, returned to the guide as an expression of appreciation for a memorable woodland experience. A few of those "illustrated journals" are intact although, regrettably, many of the smiling faces of the early sports, and guides, remain a mystery. But they are all we have. They allow us to share with them a moment during a pleasureable hunting experience somewhere in the backwoods of the province. We begin our journey with one of those early journals - a 1904 hunt for moose and caribou by two American sports from Pennsylvania into the Northwest Miramichi with New Brunswick guide Arthur Pringle. A short review of the moose, caribou and white-tailed deer leads us into the development of early game laws, the guides and their sports, the New Brunswick Guides Association and New Brunswick's participation at the early American Sportsmen's Shows. It is the hope of the author that this book leaves the reader with a greater awareness and understanding of the charming story of early non-resident sports, their guides, and the golden years of big-game hunting. It was a fascinating and romantic period of New Brunswick history - it should not be forgotten. Size: 4 to., (27 Cm). Signed by Author(s). Seller Inventory # 1125559281
