Originally published in London 1906.
William Carnegie was a well known sportsman of the late 1800's with a vast knowledge of gamekeeping and vermin control. He wrote several books on trapping and many articles for the sporting press of that era.
The contents of this book include: The Gamekeeper; His Rights and Duties - Ground Vermin - The Polecat - The Stoat - The Weasel - The Capture of Polecats, Stoats, and Weasels - The General Details of Vermin Trapping - Poaching Cats - Rats - The Hedgehog - Winged Vermin - Ravens - Crows - Jackdaws - Magpies and Jays - Hawks and Owls .
