The Young Angler, Naturalist and Pigeon and Rabbit Fancier Routledge Warne and Routledge

This is a special re-print edition of Routledge, Warne and Routledge's legendary book "The Young Angler, Naturalist and Pigeon and Rabbit Fancier". Published in England in 1860, this is considered one of the earliest, most concise works on keeping pigeons, poultry and rabbits, as well as on fishing. Long considered a classic among British outdoor enthusiasts, this work contains some of the earliest descriptions and insights of breeds of pigeons, poultry and rabbits, as well as on fishing for leisure. Also included are insights into numerous wild birds and how to catch and raise them, on aquariums, dogs, silkworms and other hobbies once common among young British boys. An enlightening read that will be found to be informative and beneficial to those interested in these subjects over 150 years after its first publication.
