Handsome and super tight early printing of this 1912 classic, a volume in this publisher's "Outing Handbooks" series. The legendary major (1862-1948), Spanish-American War veteran and World War One training officer, penned a number of well-regarded hunting and shooting titles. This early edition quite scarce in a decent jacket.
