Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Grouse and Grouse Moors
From the point of View of the naturalist it is proper to include with the grouse as popularly known in this country various other members of the Tetraonidae family, found in abundance in both the new and the Old world. But here we shall be almost exclusively concerned with the red grouse (lagopus scotz'cus), which is in digenous to Britain. To this, its circum scribed locale, is no doubt to be attributed in some degree the great request which the red grouse commands from those who occupy their autumnal leisure in wild sports.
