A Tour in Sutherlandshire, Vol. 1 of 2
With Extracts From the Field-Books of a Sportsman and Naturalist (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Tour in Sutherlandshire, Vol. 1 of 2: With Extracts From the Field-Books of a Sportsman and Naturalist<br><br>It is with real diffidence that I offer these volumes to the public. I am induced to do so by the wishes of many of my friends and companions in the woods and fields, who, having received with indulgence my former volume on Highland Sports, have persuaded me to launch another barque laden with a similar cargo of odds and ends. That it should have as favourable a voyage as its predecessor is more than I can venture to hope. If, however, these pages serve to entertain for a few hours any of my fellow-lovers of nature, or if any whose occupations in life are of a graver and more laborious kind, find relaxation and amusement in their perusal, my object is fully gained.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
