Buchbeschreibung (Hardcover, 2014). 2014 1st edition. Large 8vo (198 x 228mm). Pp192. Colour and b/w photographs. Pictorial laminated boards, issued without a dust-wrapper. Boards faded. Good-plus. A well written and readable book of David Barrington Barnes' shooting reminiscences. A lifetime of sport with rabbits, grouse, duck, geese, woodcock, pheasant, deer and more. "David is a passionate, all-round sportsman. Since shooting his first rat at the age of eight, he has packed into life an immense schedule of shooting, stalking and fishing. His energy and enthusiasm is quite remarkable, and I reckon he probably needs three lifetimes to get close to satisfying his appetite for such pursuits. It is, of course, his life, together with those around him for whom he cares dearly; particularly his immediate family, who have had to keep up with the schedule. David takes his sport seriously and, as you will read, there is not much he has not done in the shooting field. He has had his moments as a great shot, and within this book he recalls some of those occasions that will remain with him and his friends forever. He is the perfect guest, whether on a formal day or a 'knock about' with a couple of friends, the latter of which he probably enjoys the most. As a writer he has become well known in the shooting press for his legal expertise and advice to fellow sportsmen. However, David not only possesses a great legal mind, but an enviable ability to recall, in lucid detail, those moments in fieldsports that excite us all. This was evident in his first book, On The Deer Path (our stock number 28742), where some of his experiences in stalking deer are recalled in evocative fashion. This delightful book is no exception. It captures the imagination, and is the very essence of why we go shooting." (John Thornley, OBE). Chapters include: Princely shooting, perfect shots; Young guns; Shooting trials and tribulations; Lark Farm shoot; The feed ride; Fun with ferrets; Days at the grouse; Flight time; Woodcock! Woodcock!; Red letter days; 'Go seek! Hi lost!; Men of the field; A mixed bag; Thanks so much!; The spent cartridge. . Artikel-Nr. 53920
