HUNTING DOGS 



Describes in a Practical Manner the Training, Handling, Treatment, 



Breeds, Etc., Best Adapted for Night Hunting, as Well 



as Gun Dogs for Daylight Sport. 



THIS book contains 253 pages, 5x7 

 inches, 45 illustrations showing the 

 various breeds, hunting scenes, etc. 

 The author, in his introduction says : "As 

 if hunting for profit, night hunting for 

 either pleasure or gain and professional 

 hunting had no importance, writers of 

 books have contented themselves with 

 dwelling on the study and presentation of 

 matters relating solely to the men who 

 hunt for sport only. Even then the Fox 

 Chase and Bird Hunting has been the bur- 

 den of the greater per cent of such books." 



The contents show the scope of this 

 book, and if you are at all interested in 

 hunting dogs, you should have this work. 



This book is made up not only from the 

 author's observation and experience, but 

 that of scores of successful night as well as daylight hunters.
