Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Big Game Shooting in Alaska In submitting this small work to the criticisms of brother sportsmen, or others of the reading public into whose hands it may fall, it is the earnest desire of the author that the following facts may be borne in mind during its perusal: Firstly, that it is not the outcome of a wild desire on the part of the writer to rush into print and air his own views on certain matters, or to lay down, after spending only one season in Alaska, any hard and fast rules as to the habits of certain kinds of game, and the best mode of killing them. Such a mistake is only too common on the part of many young sportsmen, and even of others of more mature years in search of small notoriety. Men of far greater experience on the same subjects hesitate to express any opinion, or to place on record in print any of their own ideas, for fear of appearing ridiculous in the eyes of a very few who may know more about these matters than the writers themselves.

There is a plenty of vermin and birds of prey to practice on. Never kill more game. Than you can use, or kill game while it is sitting. It is more sportsmanlike to kill game while ying or running and it gives the game an equal chance of life, besides showing the superiority of man's ingenuity and skill over the powers of Self preservation with which nature has provided all living things.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Field, Cover, and Trap Shooting For much the greater part of that period, Captain Bogardus has maintained and brought up his respectable and interesting family, almost solely by his gun. From that fact, I concluded that his was the knowledge and experience which would be valuable and instructive to sportsmen, young and Old, and interesting to the general public. The former do not want to listen to people who know no more than they know them selves. The latter do not want to peruse the work of a man on any subject if he never rises above mediocrity, while they gladly welcome the book of one who has proved himself a master of his art. Because Captain Bogardus had been able to live for many years solely by his gun, he was Of all men best qualified to enlighten Old sportsmen, and instruct the young in regard to the habits and haunts Of game and the art of shooting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shooting, Vol. 2 Valley and flats near Berkeley Castle, where it comes as regularly as do the pink-footed geese to Holkham, but later, as it does not arrive till December. The sight of the great flocks of these birds on the Irish bogs makes any sportsman long to obtain a shot. But the geese know this ground so well that this is a difficult business. There is no covert but the bog drains, and in these the slush lies too deep for wading to be practicable. Occasionally, however, a chance is to be had from behind a turf dyke, or in heavy gales when the geese are flying low out to the sands. The bird seldom visits Norfolk. A few come to Holkham in hard weather, in flocks of from five to ten, when they are found to be less shy than the pink-footed geese. This goose is easily distinguished from the grey-lag, having the breast broadly barred with black in one complete and two partial bands, and a white rim at the base of the beak but the young birds do not Show this white rim till January, and the females have no bars on the breast, which leads to great confusion with the bean goose or pink-footed goose. The feet are, however, orange, while the bill is orange with a white lip. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Shooter's Hand-Book: Being the Treatise on Shooting From "the Rod and the Gun" Conviviality reigned at the old Hall of Oakleigh after the good old English fashion. The hills by day, and the walls by night, reverberated the sportsman's voice. As of yore, in that mansion of other days, the song was sung and the tale was told; Welcome presided; and Mirth and Modera tion - two fellows who seemed never to grow old were rarely absent.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rifles and Shotguns: The Art of Rifle and Shotgun Shooting for Big Game and Feathered Game, With Special Chapters on Military Rifle Shooting And for the hunter it must be realized that systems, designed to make target scorers out general average of humanity, will not fit one for the crucial moment of big game shooting, nor will trap shooting ever make a wingshot who can knock down his bird with a swift snap in the thick brush.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of Revolver Shooting: Together With All Information Concerning the Automatic and Single-Shot Pistol, and How to Handle Them to the Best Advantage I do not think that anyone who takes up pistol and revolver shooting - for other than man-killing purposes will ever regret it. It is not only morally and physically a healthy sport, but it teaches self-reliance, coolness, and the control of one's temper, which last such amusements as croquet and golf, for instance, certainly do not. Pistol shooting is also an accomplishment always useful and sometimes of vital importance. It is thus unlike croquet, cricket, lawn-tennis, golf, and all other games which develop skill only in forms that cannot be of practical use. It may be objected that the games I condemn are useful as exercises for the development of the body; but there are plenty of forms of sports - shooting, hunting, swimming, polo, bicycling, ' and so on - which give just as good, or better, exercise, yet at the same time teach skill in some thing useful instead of in mere play fit only for boys.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Illustrated Treatise on the Art of Shooting: With Extracts From the Best Authors The book we have now before us, although the work of a gunmaker, is by no means a treatise on the construction of the weapons which it is his business to manufacture, but is a manual of instructions relating to the effective handling of shot guns after they have been made. The author, over and beyond his ordinary business standing, enjoys the reputation of being an excellent "coach," whose endeavour it is, not only "to teach the young idea how to shoot," but likewise to lead men no longer young to abandon old ideas that have proved unconducive to success, and replace them by other methods more likely to attain the desired end. And one purpose of this work is that it may serve as a text-book to pupils, enabling them at their leisure to go again over the ground trodden during the process of personal teaching, and fix in their minds the principles that are sought to be inculcated. But the utility of the book is by no means restricted to those who have the advantage of personal tuition, for many who are self-taught -except in so far as they are observers of men and manners, and imitators of what they conceive to be the best practice - may yet find ample food for reflection in the hints and suggestions that are laid before them. The book consists of two parts, the first of which may be said to constitute the mainstay of the work; and in this part will be found, almost exclusively, the numerous illustrations which form its most striking feature. Instead of long verbal descriptions telling the reader what to do, - or what not to do how to carry his gun, say, for use, for comfort, or for safety - a picture is placed before his eyes, showing in action what is inculcated - the grasp of the hand, the posture of the body, and the direction of the barrel; the figures not being left to the mere imagination of the artist, but the authors ideas being converted into realities by photographic representations of men in the very act of doing what is directed, which photographs have been transferred for printing purposes by the skilful pencil of Mr. J. Temple. There are about fifty of these page-size illustrations, which show how the gun should be carried easily under the arm for a long tramp, or on the shoulder in readiness for immediate use, how to hold it when loading, where the barrel should or should not be directed when walking in line, and what shots ought to be avoided as tending to danger; how to hit birds that are crossing to right or to left, that are approaching the gun or going straight away, that are skimming low or flying high over the shooters head, or that have passed beyond him and are going away, with the variations that are required for different angles, as well as for ascending or descending shots, and hints as to when to shoot over birds and when under. The author has preferred to let the illustrations tell their own tale for the most part; and the defect, if it be one, lies on the side of extreme brevity; for the pictures in the first portion of the book are so numerous, in comparison with the quantity of text, that the printer has occasionally found himself in straits when endeavouring to place the descriptive matter in front of the corresponding engraving, and consequently, from a typographical point of view, the appearance is not so shapely as it might have been had there been more text to fill out some of the pages. The second part of the book - which consists partly of original matter and partly of quotations from our own and other pages - touches on subjects less directly connected with the manipulation of the gun in the field. These bring up the volume to about 160 pages of text, exclusive of the illustrations. They include notes on costume, instructions on gun cleaning, measuring for a gun, hammer or hammerless guns, steel and Damascus barrels, chokes and cylinders, times and velocities, sizes of sho.
