Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Big Game Shooting on the Equator Sport in East Africa can hardly be said to be within the reach Of a poor man unless he is a resident, in which case opportunities will occur without much expense but the traveller must face a certain outlay in connection with the equipment Of his caravan, and is warned not to be too Spartan or to run risks Of exposure, for, excellent as the climate is, the dangers of both sunstroke and chill are very real and very terrible to the imprudent. Financially East African travelling has this advantage, that you know the expense beforehand. The cost of a caravan can be caleu lated, and once it is paid for, it is impossible to spend money when on the march.

Download or read book Big Game Shooting Classic Reprint written by Clive Phillipps-Wolley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-06 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Big Game Shooting is a book full of both fascinating tales and practical advice on a kind of hunting that has gone quite seriously out of fashion. This is both a collection of stories about hunting big game and an instructional on topics of interest to the avid marksman. The book is separated into chapters, of which Clive Phillipps-Wolley has authored four, with guest contributors responsible for the remaining sections. Chapters vary in terms of scope, with some examining a single breed of game and others more broadly discussing a topic of interest to the hunting community. Specific topics detailed including arctic hunting, the stag of the Alps, the Scandinavian elk, the large game of Spain and Portugal, and several others. The book transitions to a series of instructional chapters that focus on setting up camps and transportation, selecting rifles and ammunition, and hints on preservation and taxidermy. The title is concluded by a detailed appendix. Big Game Shooting is a work that will appeal to the hunting enthusiast. The first-hand accounts of hunting expeditions that form the largest section of the book are entertaining and educational. The instructional chapters can be read both practically and as a text illuminating the history of hunting practices. While Clive Phillipps-Wolley receives credit as the primary author, all of the included writers provide meaningful contributions to the work. While the practice of shooting big game is less than highly regarded among environmentally concious individuals much of this advice will also help those "hunting" with a camera. The tales of hunting expeditions are entertaining, and the advice provided practical. Big Game Shooting is a worthwhile read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Big Game Shooting, Vol. 1 It rather seems as if we were coming just now to something like a parting of the ways in the history of the Big Game of the world. For many years, ever since the introduction of efficient firearms, man has been shooting beast to such an extent that it seemed likely that the future author who took up his pen to write about Big Game would be able to dispose of them as briefly as the scribe of the famous chapter on snakes in Iceland. Thanks, however, to an appreciation of the imminent risk of this extinction, and partly to some very striking object lessons, such as the extermination in the unprotected state of the American bison, more or less stringent game laws, more or less thoroughly enforced, are now the rule rather than the exception over the greater part of the globe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Big Game Fields of America, North and South: Illustrated From Photographs by the Author and Three Drawings by Charles Livingston Bull What I have actually seen of wildlife during a good many big game hunting trips in North and South America, from Alaska to the equator, is the theme of this book. Most of the ac counts were penciled in the shooting tent or even on moonlit nights while awaiting some night prowler. In two chapters I have attempted to give with some exactitude the natural history of the black bear and the jaguar, the two animals which in captivity and the open I have most carefully studied, but in general my obj ect is to present as clearly as possible the human side of the sport the greatest Sport in the world. If it proves that I am successful in taking my reader with me, through mountains and jungle, and if I make of the reader a convert to the life of the open, I shall be glad, for I know of noth ing that gives so much and asks so little as nature.
