‎ "The Field" Office, London, 1878. In-8 gr. (mm. 272x205), mz. marocchino coevo con ang. (lievi abras.), dorso a cordoni con titolo oro e pregevoli decorazioni dorate sul tema spotivo ai riquadri, pp. (8),176, risg. marmorizzati, taglio sup. dorato. Il volume raccoglie 12 racconti di Francis dedicati alla pesca e alla caccia, magnificamente illustrati dai disegni di Alfred Cooper, incisi da Edmund Evans. Ogni testo è introdotto da una tavola, con una grande testata e un finalino che raffigurano scene relative a: Partridge shooting - Punt fishing - Woodcock shooting - Trout fishing - Pheasant shooting - Pike fishing - Rabbit shooting - Roach fishing - Grouse shooting - Salmon fishing - Snipe shooting - Grayling fishing. Inoltre, ogni racconto è ornato da una bellissima grande iniziale decorata. Così si esprime l'Autore sull'artista Cooper: his drawings are most of them Sketches from Nature, and many of the figures are Portraits of well-known persons.Solo verso e recto dei risg. e pag. bianca che segue sono assai fioriti, altrimenti esemplare molto ben conservato, con due preziosi ex libris nobiliari. ‎
