First published in 1890, “The Confessions of a Poacher” is an interesting collection of essays and anecdotes based on the author's personal and extensive experience poaching. Profusely illustrated and highly-readable, this book primarily offers its reader tips and advice on how to be a successful poacher, but also provides a unique insight into England in the late nineteenth century. “The Confessions of a Poacher” will appeal to those with an interest in hunting and poaching, and it is not to be missed by collectors of vintage literature of this ilk. Contents include: “The Embryo Poacher”, “Under the Night”, “Graduating in Woodcraft”, “Partridge Poaching”, “Hare Poaching”, “Pheasant Poaching”, “Salmon and Trout Poaching”, “Grouse Poaching”, “Rabbit Poaching”, “Tricks”, and “Personal Encounters”. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition for the enjoyment of modern readers.
