Sporting Notes in the Far East

An officer in the Royal Navy, Cradock details his sporting adventures along the Chinese, Siberian and Japanese coasts during his service in the region.

Dayrell Davies, provides a chapter on hunting rhinoceros, wild boar and several deer species on Borneo and neighboring islands. Original blue-gray pictorial cloth, beveled edges. Minor fraying to spine ends, rubbing to edges. Original pale yellow endpapers. Illustrated with full page plates and maps.
