Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Hunter´s Arcadia I will here repeat a conversation I had with an employé Government; from it the reader can take his conclusions: "Sir, you dress field sports in Colonies in an attractive garb." "Not more so than they deserve." "A man of your years should be ashamed of himself! You will have all the youngsters going in for rifles, horses, and dogs, when they should be studying stock-raising, irrigation, sub-soiling, and chemical manures." "Nothing of the kind. You have passed your life in a Government office at home, and so know as little of the outer and bigger world as the majority of stay-at-home Englishmen do - that is, about as much as an Irish pig does of social etiquette. Listen, and I will give you my reasons for encouraging a love of field sports in those youths that emigrate.
