Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sporting Dog On a Virginia day, the winter of 1863, a human mite peeped through a fence of chestnut rails at the concord of a redhot Confederate landowner and a Federal officer over an old white setter and a bevy of quail, - "bunch of pah'tridges," they said. Every year since, the pupil has been under the tuition of men who know sporting dogs. Amateurs, professionals, scientists, market-hunters, dog-thieves, financiers, jurists, loafers, and clubmen; Bluenoses, Tarheels, Hoosiers, Canadians, Britishers, Germans, Populists, and Squaw-men, - for the unfailing indulgence with which they have diminished his ignorance, he tenders acknowledgment.
