About This Item
Michael Joseph Ltd, Bedford Square, London - 1980 hardcover, 6½" x 9½", with dust jacket VERY GOOD book in VERY GOOD unclipped dust jacket This book, first published in 1950, has been out of print for some years and this new, revised edition will be welcomed by the many fans of BB. The author is thankful that he knew the sport of wildfowling at its very best, when the lonely wastes of the Wash were thronged with fowl in winter - especially the great battalions of pink-feet which came in at dawn from the sandbanks. Alas, many of the great haunts of wildfowl are now patrolled by irresponsible men who call themselves sportsmen but who shoot at anything that flies - including birds now on the protected list. BB hopes that his book will stand as a memorial and record of what wildfowling was all about.
