Description
The history and current practice of game shooting is examined in this humorous collection of 300 entries on the subject, ranging from the bizarre, the quirky, and the curious to the downright odd. Inspired by the author's lifetime of shooting experiences and the sport's colorful history, this anthology recounts some of shooting's most intriguing stories, including:
  • How a day's shooting led to the creation of the Guiness Book of World Records
  • The tragic, outrageous story of America's first country sports writer
  • An incredible shot that made a one-eyed sculptor the toast of Victorian England
