THE NARRATIVE OF A SPORTSMAN 
Inter^Ocean Hunting Tales 
■ ■ — EDGAR r. RANDOLPH ===^—==^= 
A series of hunting reminiscences of rare charm for the sportsman and for the 
wider circle which delights in true tales of outdoor life. With none of the high 
coloring and exaggeration which give a false note to so many hunting stories, Mr. 
Randolph’s book is never lacking in interest. 
He covers the field of sport with the rifle, east and west, drawing a vivid word 
picture of life in the open, subordinating his own exploits to the main incidents of 
outdoor experience, giving much valuable information on camp life, hunting and the 
habits of wild game, and continually delighting the reader with the freshness of his 
viewpoint. 
This book will strike a sympathetic chord in the memory of every big-game 
hunter of experience and will prove of real value to the novice who is planning an 
excursion into the wild.
