This text contains a fascinating and detailed treatise on wildfowl
shooting from within a boat. A great text detailing the thrills and
vagaries of duck shooting from afloat, this text is sure to interest the
duck hunting enthusiast and promises to inspire a desire to try this
form of duck hunting if the reader is not already familiar. Both
entertaining and informative, this book includes some of the author's
personal experiences and is well deserving of a place in collections of
hunting literature. The sections of this book include: 'Punting, or
Wildfowl Shooting Afloat'; 'How to Shoot Wildfowl With a Punt and
Swivel-Gun'; 'January, 1880'; 'January, 1881'; and 'January, 1885'. We
have elected this antique book for modern republication because of its
educational value, and we are proud to republish it here complete with a
new introduction on shooting wildfowl.
