PREFACE. Vll 



executed expressly for this work by the late M. Korner, 

 one of the most celebrated of Swedish artists, and have 

 been here reproduced by the publishers in full fac-simile 

 as to colour and drawing by means of Chromolithography. 

 Several of the woodcuts are by Mr. Wolf, whose de- 

 lineations of wild animals can hardly be surpassed. 



The reader will further notice, that in this, as in 

 my former works, quotations from Scandinavian writers 

 occur somewhat frequently. This may seem to require 

 explanation ; but it being my object to show how 

 matters relating to " flood and field " are managed 

 in Scandinavia, I have thought it best to allow the 

 Northern naturalist and sportsman to tell their stories 

 in their own way. 



In conclusion, I would remark that, presuming the 

 reader to be acquainted with my former works, I have 

 not in the present volume so fully explained the mean- 

 ing of Sporting and other terms as I shovdd otherwise 

 have done.
