Rating:  Summary: Upland hunitng classic Review: This is the essential resource for anyone interested in all aspects of upland shooting. Norris is probably best known as an old school gentleman wingshooter; this book shows how upland shooting is done right. It is interesting to note how Norris's method of wingshooting as practiced in the countryside around Philadelphia stands in stark contrast to the market duck hunting that was practiced just to the south on the Chesapeake. This book will also interest dog lovers (it contains descriptions of various breeds and general dog-care instruction). Norris was a doctor by training and this is apparent in his method of writing. He conveys clear accurate technical information. But behind all the technical information is an implicit lesson, that of fair chase. In the modern era, very few hunters can articulate this concept; and it is all but lost on the general public.
