SPORTING PAGEANT
A Gun, a Rifle, and an Aeroplane

H. F. & G. WITHERBY, LTD
1947

First edition.
An unusual shooting book making use of aerial photographs taken by the author to give a birds eye prospective. Scottish sport with the emphasis on wildfowling and rough shooting.

This book covers a wide range of observations and experiences for the shooting Sportsman. Whether the author is describing an early morning vigil for the coming of the grey lag, or the duck flighting in at dusk, or writing of his experiences of deer-stalking or of a day's rough shooting he shows himself equally at home with his subject, while an altogether new and fascinating perspective is thrown on the sport by his use of the aeroplane and aerial photography.
