Interesting publication from Arthur Robert Harding's (1871-1930) how-to series of books called "Pleasure & Profit," which describes the various makes and uses of steel traps and care of pelts, etc. Other entries in the series were "Mink Trapping," "Bee Hunting," "Fur Farming," "Hunting Dogs," and many others. These works were the first widely distributed instructional books on trapping in the United States. The series, along with his two magazine publications, "Hunter-Trader-Trapper," and "Fur-Fish-Game," had a wide ranging impact on the development of conservation and game laws.

Decorative Cloth. Condizione: Good +. No Jacket. First Edition. Mink Trapping(A Book of Instruction Giving Many Methods of Trapping--a Valuable Book for Trappers), Edited by A.R. Harding, was published by A.R. Harding Publishing Co. in 1906. Not an ex-library copy, this 5" X 6 5/8", 188-page, 105-year-old, thought-to-be First Edition offering is in G+ condition. There is some modest yellowing of endpapers front and back as well as pages of text, there is fairly frequent, light, spotty foxing on random pages throughout text, modest shelf wear at top and bottom edges of volume's spine, and some slight webbing is observed between pages 112-113 of text. From Editor Harding's Introductory, ".The methods [for trapping mink] published [in this offering] are from all parts of the country, and many experienced trappers tell of their best methods, so that it makes no difference in what part of America you live, something will be found of how to trap in your section. Most of the articles are taken from those published in the H-T-T(Hunter-Trader-Trapper Magazine) with slight correction." Complementing the text, and very much adding a decided early-Twentieth-century "look" to this rustic offering, are some 45 black and white, period photographs that alone make this volume worthy of purchase. And, spanning pages 175-188, are individual photos, along with detailed descriptions of each, of an assortment of Newhouse mink, and other, steel traps. Book also includes Contents pages, List of Illustrations, and 3-4 period advertisements for such Harding publications as "A Trip on the Great Lakes" and "Ginseng and Other Medicinal Plants". Presented in twenty(20) chapters, some of the topics/areas explored include "Size and Care of Skins", "Good and Lasting Baits", "Indian Methods", "Unusual Ways", "Salt Set", "Log and Other Sets", and "Deadfalls". Thank you!. …
