Manual of British Rural Sports: The Pursuit of Wild Animals for Sport: Comprising Shooting, Hunting, Coursing, Fishing & Falconry Review

The Manual of British Rural Sports first appeared in 1856 and quickly established itself as an excellent handbook to the many outdoor pursuits practiced in the British countryside. All aspects of these pursuits are covered, including rules and regulations, tactics, and information and diagrams of the required equipment. Informs the Victorian gentleman which floats to use when fishing for bream and which caliber of shot to use when shooting grouse. Nostalgic in its production, this book will capture an important niche in the expanding heritage market.
