Publisher's Synopsis

The Master of Game is a book on hunting written by Edward Duke of York, believed to be the oldest English book on the subject. Originally written in the 15th century, the book was updated and translated into modern English by the Duke of York in 1909. The book covers a wide range of topics related to hunting, including the different types of game, their habits and habitats, the best methods for hunting them, and the necessary equipment and tools. The book also includes advice on training hunting dogs, as well as the etiquette and ethics of hunting. The Master of Game is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and practice of hunting, as well as for those interested in medieval literature and culture.With A Foreword By Theodore Roosevelt.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
