Originally published in 1903, this book comprises a detailed guide to
setting up and maintaining a routine of management for the successful
rearing of pheasants. Written in clear, simple language and full of
handy tips, "The Pheasant Rearers' Manual" represents a timeless guide
for all with a practical interest in the subject keeping wildfowl for
pleasure or sport. Contents include: "Pheasants and Sport", "Concerning
Eggs", "Aviary Construction", "Catching up Pheasants", "Equipment",
"Sitting Fowls", "Management", "The Rearing Field", "Removal to Covert",
"Coverts", "Diseases", etc. Many vintage books such as this are
increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are
republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality
edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on
shooting wildfowl.
