Extract from page 312, Badminton Ijibrary. "^JVIoor and IVfarsli." Th.e Grun and its De- 

 velopment, with. Notes on Sliooting. By W. "W. Grreener. 



"This is the most comprehensive modern work we have in our language dealing with guns. Not only does it treat fully of the very earliest arms known, commencing with bows 

 aad arrows, but it is equally accurate and exhaustive in regard to all recent in^ventions in gun-making. Every kind of sport to be had with the gun is here also described and commented 

 on in a practical and interesting, though very condensed, manner, and the gunning to be done, or expected, "in every corner of the globe is well described in Mr. Greener's admirably 

 written book. Every gun worth mentioning, with its mechanism, is fully and carefully engraved and explained for those who care for the technicalities of gun-making. 



"We would- strongly recommend this capital treatise to all who own a gun, not only as a most useful adjunct to their sport, but as the best of tutors in the matter of all that has to 

 do with firearms of every description, large or small, from swivel guns to cripple-stoppers and 20-bores, and from elephant to rook rifles. 



"Among the mass of useful information on shooting contained in this large work of over 700 pages, wildfowl shooting is very fairly, though briefly described and illustrated. We 

 consider Mr. Greener's work a wondei'ful example of care, patience and ingenuity; that this is also the opinion of the general public is evidenced by the fact of its third edition being so 

 so©n called for.
