Excerpt from Pheasant Keeping for Amateurs: A Practical Handbook on the Breeding, Rearing, and General Management of Aviary Pheasants I have never been a game-preserver in the common acceptation of the word; but if I were, the height of my ambition would be to see a score or two of those truly majestic birds, oreeves' (an adult male is fully 6ft. Long), feeding from the home coverts towards my windows; he is an ornament to any grounds, and as easy to rear as a chicken.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
