Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wild Sports in the South: Or, of the Camp-Fires of the Everglades The larger portion of the Sketches contained in this volume were contributions made by the Author to The Spirit of the Times, a few years ago, under the title of Camp-Fire Stories, and as some of them have been floating about in other papers, this statement seems necessary, lest the reader may regard these twice-told tales as lacking in originality. Nothing more is claimed for this volume than that it contains pleasant reminiscences of hunting life and adventure in the peninsula of Florida, and counterparts of tales, some of them remembered, some of them fancied, that frontier hunters tell when assembled at night around their camp-fires. The Author does not ask that each story shall be regarded as having occurred literally as written; but he believes the spirit of the tales, the description of natural scenery, and the fragments of Indian history to be correct, and he has carefully striven not to offend the keen observation and long experience of his hunting comrades at the South whose eyes will scrutinize these pages, by any allusion to natural history which is not exactly true. If the book will recall the Author pleasantly to their minds, or awaken the remembrance of grand old sports and merry camp-fires in the States of the South, its object is attained.

"Seekest thou the plash y brink Of weedy lake, or marge of river wide, Or where the rocking billows rise and sink On the chafed oceanis side? "And soon thy toil shall end, Soon shalt thou find a summer home and rest, And scream among thy fellows--reeds shall bend Soon o.er thy sheltered nest." Bryant. For some time past, on the mainland, we had been noticing the signs of the departing year, and at Bonda Key these indications became more marked and numerous. The air had not lost its balsam or the leaf its colour, yet there were other shadows on nature's dial slighter in appearance, but as true in reality. The ear missed the whir in the evening air of those summer insects, whose short lives had already terminated. The eye saw a clearness in the atmosphere that brought objects several miles distant apparently near at hand, and sometimes elevated them above the horizon. Some birds that wore in summer the livery of the rainbow had apparelled themselves in plainer garments, and from day to day new arrivals among migratory tribes of the air would recall the mind to those northern hills where the jagged pine and lichened rock were already grey with the first flurry of snow. We were all standing one morning at the " creak o' day," on the island, watching the first effects of the sun before its rising, and noting the little indications of the progress nature had made during the night. Thus travellers at sea will come forth early in the morning, and for a few minutes scan the ocean and ship, and note the bearings and the winds before they turn to the regular thoughts and occupations of the day. "See those ducks coming?" said Jackson. "Where?" "Close by the mainland, sir, low down." "Yes! they are coming this way, ...

This book was released on 1991 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Whitehead, a wealthy New York attorney and avid sportsman, recounts an 1830s hunting expedition to Florida in this captivating reissue of a volume originally published in 1860. Whitehead recounts bear and turkey hunts, a panther that is caught in a pig pen, an Indian attack on a lighthouse, and various encounters with Florida pioneers. A vivid and, according to biologist Lovett Williams who provides the introduction, largely accurate depiction of a long-vanished Florida. "--Tampa Tribune-Times Brought to the attention of UPF by the late Archie Carr, this sportsman's memoir of the Florida peninsula in the nineteenth century is a series of charming tales about hunting expeditions along the cracker frontier. The Florida peninsula in the 1830s was covered by flatwoods, swamps of giant cypress, and hammocks of cabbage palm and live oak trees. The land teemed with panther, black bear, wild hogs, and white ibis. Writing with clarity and elegance, Whitehead weaves his descriptions of this landscape into an old-fashioned, hair-raising adventure story. One strand relates the affairs of an extended hunting expedition; the other stand consists of the anecdotes told by the main characters around the campfires in the evenings. The hunting and fishing practices of natives in the area, principally Seminoles, and a few rugged pioneers enhance the historical detail.
