THE SCIENTIFIC EDUCATION OF DOGS FOR THE GUN. By H.H.
(1890) ND (c2004) new paperback edition. 8vo (127 x 204mm). Pp217.
A facsimile reprint of one of the earliest books to devote the majority of its contents to the working and training of pointers and setters. Also includes good sections on retrievers and spaniels. "The author's admiration for the reasoning power of the dog, which makes itself evident on every page, will assuredly be shared by all who read this book." Derry Argue (in "Pointers and Setters") gives the author as the Reverend Hely-Hutchinson. However, this volume names the author (on the front cover) as H. Nevill Fitt.
