Rough Shooting is a book written by Thomas Edward Kebbel and published in 1889. The book is a comprehensive guide to the sport of shooting, specifically focusing on rough shooting, which involves hunting game birds in their natural habitat rather than on a controlled shooting ground. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a different aspect of rough shooting. Kebbel begins by discussing the different types of game birds that can be hunted, including pheasants, partridges, and grouse. He then goes into detail about the equipment and clothing needed for a successful hunt, including guns, cartridges, and clothing that will blend in with the natural surroundings. Kebbel also covers the various techniques and strategies for hunting game birds, including how to approach them without being seen, how to flush them out of cover, and how to shoot them effectively. He also provides tips on how to train a hunting dog and how to work with a hunting partner. Throughout the book, Kebbel emphasizes the importance of safety and responsible hunting practices. He stresses the need for hunters to be aware of their surroundings and to always keep safety in mind when handling firearms. Overall, Rough Shooting is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the sport of rough shooting. It provides a wealth of information on the equipment, techniques, and strategies needed for a successful hunt, as well as emphasizing the importance of safety and responsible hunting practices.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
