Ed Miller has created a work which will, I have not the slightest doubt, come to be recognised as a classic. --Shooting Times & Country Magazine
He intersperses tales with advice, opinions and warnings and tells of the changes that have come about, but, refreshingly, he doesn t hark back to the good old days to compare. Gentle, charming and anecdotal. --The Field
Practical, anecdotal, entertaining, informative...a surprisingly good read. The author writes well and captures the essence of sport on the foreshore in a way that will appeal to anyone who enjoys shooting. --Fieldsports Magazine
Edward Miller spent 46 years in the gun trade. In this lively memoir, he conveys the passion for wildfowling that gets sane people out of bed long before first light, to walk miles across dangerous tidal flats in the depths of a winter dawn, to lie flat in damp sand for hours, waiting for that evocative beat of wings to pass overhead.
