A comprehensive survey of American game bird species and hunting practices. The astonishingly rapid increase of population in the United States has resulted in an equally startling decrease in America's game birds.As game becomes more scarce the importance of preserving it gradually becomes more appreciated. Yet the reality is that in a thickly settled regions it is very difficult to efficiently protect the game.A number of people have been trying to accomplish something to protect game birds and the promise of good results is brighter than it has been. Sportsmen devoted to the ethics of sport, and successful in pursuit of game want to know all they can about the life ways of the beautiful birds in an effort to advance the knowledge required to deal with this problem. American Game Bird Shooting provides is an extraordinary reference tool for the American sportsman.

Excerpt from American Game-Bird Shooting No Full and complete work on American upland shooting has as yet been written. Volumes have been published, each of which covers some section of what is really a large subject, but from the broader sportsman's viewpoint no one of them is complete. Of these works, the most useful was written by the veteran naturalist and sportsman, D. G. Elliott, whose Game Birds of North America deals chiefly with the natural history side of the grouse and quails, and touches only lightly Oh the methods by which they are pursued for sport. It seems time now that a book should he written, covering the whole subject of upland American game-bird shooting; that is, the shooting of those birds in which the pointing dog is the assistant to the gun - the turkeys, grouse and quail, and the American woodcock and Wilson's snipe, called also "English" and "jack" snipe, a bird of continental distribution.

He spent many years studying the natural history of the region. As a graduate student, he accompanied Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer's 1874 Black Hills expedition as a naturalist. He declined a similar appointment to the ill-fated 1876 Little Big Horn expedition.In 1875, Colonel William Ludlow, who had been part of Custer's gold exploration effort, invited Grinnell to serve as naturalist and mineralogist on an expedition to Montana and the newly established Yellowstone Park. Grinnell prepared an attachment to the expedition's report, in which he documented the poaching of buffalo, deer, elk and antelope for hides. "It is estimated that during the winter of 1874-1875, not less than 3,000 Buffalo and mule deer suffer even more severely than the elk, and the antelope nearly as much." (Punke, pp. 102) His experience in Yellowstone led Grinnell to write the first of many magazine articles dealing with conservation, the protection of the buffalo, and the American West.Grinnell made hunting trips to the St. Mary Lakes region of what is now Glacier National Park in 1885, 1887 and 1891 in the company of James Willard Schultz, the first professional guide in the region. During the 1885 visit, Grinnell and Schultz while traveling up the Swiftcurrent valley observed the glacier that now bears his name. Along with Schultz, Grinnell participated in the naming of many features in the Glacier region.[2] He was later influential in establishing Glacier National Park in 1910. He was also a member of the Edward Henry Harriman expedition of 1899, a two-month survey of the Alaskan coast by an elite group of scientists and artists. Grinnell was prominent in movements to preserve wildlife and conservation in the American West. Grinnell wrote articles to help spread the awareness of the conservation of buffalo. For many years, he published articles and lobbied for congressional support for the endangered American buffalo. In 1887, Grinnell was a founding member, with Theodore Roosevelt, of the Boone and Crockett Club, dedicated to the restoration of America's wildlands. Other founding members included General William Tecumseh Sherman and Gifford Pinchot. Grinnell and Roosevelt published the Club's first book in 1895. Grinnell also organized the first Audubon Society and was an organizer of the New York Zoological Society.....

Of the many different types of hunting, wing shooting of game birds in flight is one of the most popular, and one of the most challenging, too. Hunting is done for recreation, food, culling overpopulation or pests, and fur. Whatever the reason, hunters need to be informed about conservation laws, licensing requirements, safety practices, and ethical concerns. This fully illustrated, relevant guide offers tips on each of these as well as how to plan hunts and understand birds' behavior and tendencies for successful and enjoyable hunts. Beginners and more experienced hunters will both benefit from this timely book.
