A slightly used but solidly intact second-hand paperback. A collection of articles recounting stories gleaned from lore, legend and the sporting press. "Shooting's Strangest Days is a unique collection of stories about the mad, the bad and the truly dangerous to know, from more than two hundred years of sporting shooting. They include mad old colonels who took their trousers off before going elephant hunting, women poachers with terriers sewn into their underskirts, and duck shooters chasing their quarry in helicopters.
