    5.0 out of 5 stars Helpful stalking resource for those crossing the pond, September 6, 2005
    Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
    This review is from: Deer Stalking Handbook (Hardcover)
    Great book as far as the content on the several species; including Muntjac, Red, Roe, Fallow, Sika and Chinese Water deer. The book is great for those who seek a stalker's certification in the U.K., but there is not much information provided for those coming from the U.S.. There is ample information for those visitors from a E.U. country as far as license needs and firearms certification. I think that the book exposes the reader to a European view of hunting which will enlighten the general hunting public in the U.S. to that of a culture more deeply rooted in tradition. Good parts of general safety, and skills. Good book.
