Colonel Hawker's Shooting Diaries - Edited with an Introduction (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781444656206)

Colonel Hawker, who died in 1853 kept a diary of his sporting life from the age of 16. This illustrated book contains many of the highlights gleaned from his more than a quarter of a million words detailing his extraordinary exploits as probably England's most famous game and wildfowl shooter. Many of the earliest sporting books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
