An Account of the Big Game of the United States and Its Chase with Horse, Hound and Rifle.

472 pages, 23 plates, chapter head-pieces printed in brown (the first issue), brown cloth with a gilt vignette and black titling on the upper cover and gilt titling on the spine. The cloth is a little dull and there are unsightly stamps on the upper cover, front endpaper and page edges, one section (pages 179-190) loose but holding on the stitching.

A slip before the frontispiece advertises ‘A sumptuous edition de luxe is in preparation for publication in the early autumn.’
