Publisher's Synopsis

A-Hunting Of The Deer And Other Essays is a collection of essays written by Charles Dudley Warner and first published in 1878. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part containing essays on hunting, fishing, and outdoor life, while the second part contains essays on various topics such as literature, politics, and society.The essays in the first part of the book are largely focused on Warner's experiences hunting and fishing in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York. They provide a vivid picture of the natural beauty of the region and the thrill of the chase, while also exploring the ethics and morality of hunting and the relationship between humans and nature.The essays in the second part of the book cover a wide range of topics, from literary criticism to political commentary to observations on everyday life. Warner's writing is characterized by a keen wit and a sharp eye for detail, and his essays are both entertaining and thought-provoking.Overall, A-Hunting Of The Deer And Other Essays is a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of America's most celebrated writers of the late 19th century. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of American literature, the natural world, or the complex relationship between humans and the environment.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
