Download or read book The Game Fowl written by P. Proud and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-05 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Game Fowl: Old English and Modern The requests which have reached me for the publication in a more permanent form of the articles contributed by Mr. Proud to The Feathered World have prompted this reprint of papers which have thus evidently been proved useful. The chapters have been carefully revised, and, with the addition of Illustrations and two Coloured Plates, they should certainly be of real service to the novice, and, per chance, convey a hint or two to even older fanciers. The inclusion within the same cover of an exact reprint of that old and standard work on Game Fowl, The Cooker, was not arrived at without serious consideration. To bowdlerise the book by cutting out all that pertained to a sport which the laws of a more humane age forbid, would have been to rob the work of much of its quaintness, and of a good deal of information. Not, therefore, as an incentive to cock-fighting, but as an aid to the breeding of healthy, vigorous stock have I reprinted the pages of that worthy old fancier, William.
