ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1983). 1983 1st edition. 8vo (140 x 222mm). Pp143. B/w photographs, bibliography. Grey boards, spine titled in gilt. Good-plus in faded dust-wrapper. "Shooting is becoming more popular than ever, and yet, at the same time, the number of…full-time gamekeepers decreases. The reason is, quite simply, the cost; the expenses of paying wages, providing accomodation, and funding a large rearing programme, are prohibitive. Rare are the large estates which employ a team of keepers in the Edwardian tradition. This book supplies the solution to the problem: based on the author's experience of building up a neglected Fen shoot, it reveals how the keen game shooter can, at minimum cost, remedy the situation; how he and a team of enthusiasts can buckle to and run their own game shoot, either by improving an existing shoot, or by taking on an area of land, or a farm, and building up the game population. It shows how even the unlikeliest piece of land can be made to show sport." Practical instructions and advice, presented in month-by-month chapters. Well worth a read. .
