Gamekeeping: A Guide for Amateur Keepers and Shooting Syndicates J. C. Jeremy Hobson
This practical manual is aimed at the amateur gamekeeper and the DIY shooting syndicate, and shows how to rear and release gamebirds economically and effectively. All the aspects are covered: hatching and buying in chicks, shelter, feeding, daily care, predators and diseases and the mature bird. There is also advice for the syndicate on negotiating with landowners, and choosing a shoot, and a special section covers all the elements of organising a successful shooting day.
