Overview"""The Forest, the Jungle and the Prairie"" is a collection of anecdotes and essays relating to the author's extensive and varied hunting experiences. With chapters on everything from the habits and habitats of the bear to hunting tigers, this profusely-illustrated and highly-readable handbook is not to be missed by modern hunters and collectors of vintage hunting literature. Contents include: ""How These Stories Came to be Told"", ""Black Monday"", ""Returning to School"", ""The Railway-train"", ""Involuntary Prisoners"", ""What is to be Done?"", ""The Virtue of Resignation"", ""How to Beguile the Time"", ""A Juvenile Poet"", ""Natural History"", ""The Lion: His History and Habits"", ""The Bear: His History and Habits"", ""The Felide: Their History and Habits"", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in a modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of big game hunting."
