Book Synopsis Wild Sports by : Friedrich Gerstacker
Download or read book Wild Sports written by Friedrich Gerstacker and published by Stackpole Books. This book was released on 2004 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exciting first-hand account of an early deer hunter's explorations of the unspoiled American wilderness Voyages from New York, through Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, and Missouri, and as far south as Louisiana. Gerstacker arrived in America from Germany in 1837, drawn by stories he had heard of the immense forests, excellent for deer hunting. He wandered from Buffalo to New Orleans, visiting frontiersmen in their backwoods cabins and living off the land, eating venison, acorns, sassafras leaves, and wild honey. He found Arkansas ideal for hunting, and encountered all sorts of wildlife, including alligators, wolves, bears, and deer, in his travels. His hunting journal gives a fascinating look at the early-nineteenth century American landscape.

Book Synopsis Wild Sports in the South by : Charles E. Whitehead
Download or read book Wild Sports in the South written by Charles E. Whitehead and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Sports in the South: Or, of the Camp-Fires of the Everglades The larger portion of the Sketches contained in this volume were contributions made by the Author to The Spirit of the Times, a few years ago, under the title of Camp-Fire Stories, and as some of them have been floating about in other papers, this statement seems necessary, lest the reader may regard these twice-told tales as lacking in originality. Nothing more is claimed for this volume than that it contains pleasant reminiscences of hunting life and adventure in the peninsula of Florida, and counterparts of tales, some of them remembered, some of them fancied, that frontier hunters tell when assembled at night around their camp-fires. The Author does not ask that each story shall be regarded as having occurred literally as written; but he believes the spirit of the tales, the description of natural scenery, and the fragments of Indian history to be correct, and he has carefully striven not to offend the keen observation and long experience of his hunting comrades at the South whose eyes will scrutinize these pages, by any allusion to natural history which is not exactly true. If the book will recall the Author pleasantly to their minds, or awaken the remembrance of grand old sports and merry camp-fires in the States of the South, its object is attained.

Book Synopsis Early Southern Sports and Sportsmen, 1830-1910 by : Jacob F. Rivers III
Download or read book Early Southern Sports and Sportsmen, 1830-1910 written by Jacob F. Rivers III and published by Univ of South Carolina Press. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob F. Rivers III has collected twenty-two classic hunting tales by twelve southern writers including Davey Crocket, Johnson J. Hooper, and Henry Clay Lewis. These stories spring not only from a genteel literary tradition but also from the tradition of the tall tale or stories of backwoods humor. Antebellum and post-Civil War tales reflect changes in the social and economic composition of the hunting class in the South. Some reveal themes of fear for the future of field sports, and others demonstrate an early conservation ethic among hunters and landowners. Early Southern Sports and Sportsmen brings to new readers a wealth of hunting and fishing lore heretofore hard to find by any but scholars in the field of southern literature. Rivers has gathered a host of well-read and well-heeled sportsmen who relish each and every detail of their encounters with their environment. Sports authors come from every spectrum of southern society, but their common vocabulary and shared enthusiasm bond them together. Rivers corrects unfortunate stereotypes of hunters as indifferent to aspects of nature other than environmental exploitation. Whether humorists or serious advocates, these authors reveal their sense of their place in the wild, and many advocate ecological good citizenship that disdains wanton slaughter and unethical practices. They condemn such acts as beneath the dignity and honor of true sportsmen. The collection includes accounts of hunting many types of game indigenous to the South from 1830 to 1910, from aristocratic foxhunts to yeoman deer drives. The structure is largely chronological, beginning with John James Audubon's essay on the American wild turkey from his Ornithological Biography (1832) and ending with stories from Alexander Hunter's The Huntsman in the South (1908). Whatever their era, the chief characteristics of these sporting accounts are the excitement the authors experience upon suddenly encountering game, the rigors and hardships they endure in its pursuit, their keen powers of observation of the woods and waters through which they travel, and the comedy often found in the strong friendships that frequently mark their adventures. But above all the tales resonate with a reverence for field sports as the means through which humans establish meaningful and lasting relationships with the mysteries and the magic of nature.
