Advice from a Gamekeeper

John Cowan

Illustrations: Roger Penwill, C.F. Tunnicliffe

Merlin Unwin Books

2009

"John Cowan has been a working gamekeeper all his life. He is head keeper on a large Scottish estate today. In this new book, he passes on everything he knows about the profession he loves. He explains how to manage the keepering year in order to provide maximum sport: everything from pest control to how a grouse or pheasant shooting day is organised, how to breed game birds, cope with poachers, which traps, hides, guns, and equipment are the best. This book is crammed with fascinating advice but it is also a very entertaining read for anyone interested in the day-to-day challenges and joys of a busy sporting estate. It provides a unique insight into the hardworking but rewarding life of the modern gamekeeper. With specially commissioned drawings from Roger Penwill and classic wildlife illustrations from C.F. Tunnicliffe."

Punchbowl Midnight

Monica Edwards

Illustrations: C.F. Tunnicliffe

Collins

1951

"The setting for this exciting story is the rich downland of Surrey. The Thorntons' farm is next the heather-covered hills of Hindhead and the deep, bracken-filled plunge of the Devil's Punch Bowl. It is a busy little farm and no matter how great the excitements the daily round must not be interfered with: the animals must be fed, the cows milked, the fields ploughed. Monica Edwards gives a delightful description of these busy days and Charles Tunnicliffe's pictures make everything very real and fascinating."
