Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hunter and the Trapper, in North America; Or Romantic Adventures in Field and Forest: From the French of Benedict Revoil The volume now submitted to the reader is a translation from the French of M. Benedict Revoil, who some years ago traversed many parts of the United States, intent upon the pursuit of game. He has recorded his experiences and adventures in an unpretending but animated and entertaining narrative, which is entirely free from exaggeration, and is commendably characterized by exceeding modesty in its references to the writer´s own achievements. There can be no doubt about his enthusiasm; as little about his powers of endurance. His skill, apparently, was considerable; and if he had a quick eye for a victim to his rifle, he had also a keen perception of the beauties of Nature. And, indeed, if the following pages contained nothing more than a mere record of the "heads of game" daily slaughtered by himself, his hosts, and his friends, they would be of interest only to a limited circle of readers, and would scarcely have been worth the trouble of rendering into English.
