The essence of hunting and a plea for the future of the sport .Published A. H. & A. W. Reed (1979), Wellington, 156 page hardback with dust wrapper. Illustrated with line drawings and contains a number of b&w photographs. From the blurb, ' Tony Orman is a deerstalker who thinks deeply about his sport. He is worried about the hunters who shoot only with dollar-signs in their eyes. He is worried, too, about government departments he sees as bent on extermination of deer in this country; he denies flatly that deer are responsible for half the damage they're blamed for.

This book is a heartfelt plea for a return to reason and sanity in deerstalking, for a return to the days of careful, skilled and selective shooting, when indiscriminate slaughter was shunned.

This book contains the reflections of a thinking, caring deerstalker. It also contains numerous stories of thrilling hunts that will appeal to skilled hunter and novice alike, and practical advice based on years of successful deerstalking'
