WOODOOCK by John Alden Knight

WOODOOCK

By

Publisher: Knopf

Knopf has taken over Penn Publishing Company's popular sportsman's library, and this latest addition to the library fills -- for outdoors men and veteran hunters -- a definite nicho hitherto vacant. Woodcock -- shooting is a favorite sport, and here are all the facts old timers and newcomers might want to know: --descriptive data, habits, cover, method of hunting, equipment, woodcock dogs, accessories. There is valuable information, too, for those who are interested from the nature-loving angle, the conservation angle, etc. And his analysis of the cycle of migration movements and monthly lunar phases bear witness to his love of woodland lore.
