Excerpt from A Sportsman at LargeRacing but my chief activities with fur, feather and fin have been set forth herein.I can only hope and trust that such rambling reminiscences as have been conjured up by sweet and bitter memories, will serve to cause some slight interest and amusement to those readers who patronize these pages, albeit I shall deem myself exceedingly lucky if I escape a charge of monotony and reiteration, pitfalls which have beset me constantly whilst stringing together a story which is no story at all, but simply a bunch of incidents depicted in fantastic mono chrome. The shooting of bird or beast the hooking, playing and landing of a fish the details of a coursing thrill, and the excitements of a bumping race, afford the author very few materials with which to elaborate his colour scheme for the reason that each and all of these ventures - in their respective spheres - bear a striking family likeness to one another.. Such as they are, here they are. I can only beg for the same kindly indulgence that has been meted out to my other modest ventures with the pen.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
