THE SHORESHOOTER

RICHARD ARNOLD

SEELEY SERVICE & CO LTD
1953
 

First edition.
Shore Shooting, quite apart from its great fascination, contains everything that the wildfowler can desire, geese, duck and waders.

Richard Arnold deals in great detail with every aspect of the sport. Hides, guns and cartridges, methods of approach, clothes, dogs, weather and, most important of all, the habits of the birds are all considered in the most practical way, governed by a great deal of original thought. He is not content to accept the traditional methods without examination, and the originality of his conclusions will supply food for thought to the most experienced wild fowler, while his guidance for the novice is extremely sound.
