Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Three Dozen Good Stories: From Texas Siftings If you want some really fine sport, why don´t you come out to my sheep camp and let us have a wolf hunt? My place is only sixteen miles from Austin. You just make arrangements to get up a party, let me know what day you will come, and I´ll fix for a big hunt." It was the Sheep Man who made the above remarks. "Do we understand, Major Brown, that you will make arrangements with the wolves? Can you rely on your wolves to be on hand? Do you keep them on tap? In short, have you got any wolves at all?" we inquired. "Got´em? Got wolves? I should say so! Why the wolves are so thick out there that they are tripping each other up all the time." We told the Sheep Man that we would be out at his place on Friday evening, prepared to deal death and destruction to wolves on Saturday. To pursue the ravenous wolf over the prairie, and to beard the savage coyote in his den had been the dream of our life. We were tired with the milder kinds of sport. We had become cloyed with quail shooting. It was too tame a sport - no real danger about it, except from some amateur sportsman´s gun; and the perils of chasing jack rabbits did not possess that excitement that we felt our system craved. A wolf hunt! That would be just the thing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
