George had a style of his own, forceably distinctive. Enjoyable read, especially if you adore english setters.

GBE's Opus One. Comprehensive and revealing, my personal primer forming my attitude toward gamebirds, guns and dogs. Essential in establishing values as related to upland gunning.

Another small game hunting book I would recommend to anyone interested in Upland Game. Well written and a great look back into what it was like then. I have copyright 1971.
