Excerpt from Memoirs of the Life of the Late John With Notices of His Hunting, Shooting, DrivingAs is easily understood, N imrod's stirring narrative was eagerly devoured at the time of publication, and Ackermann, the enterprising publisher, conceived the happy idea of presenting the veracious Memoirs in a form worthy of their sporting character. For this purpose the very man was at hand, and to Apperley, as historian, was added, as artistic col/aéorateur, the ingenious Henry Alken to furnish illustrations, an unsurpassable combination to which the present work owes its origin. Both artists stand alone, and as yet have found no successors in their respective branches.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
