New format edition - A step-by-step guide to modern shooting etiquette stuffed full of amusing quotes and anecdotes. With interviews from beaters, keepers, flankers, pickers up, shoot organisers, shoot owners, and grouse moor owning earls and dukes.

‘How to be Asked Again: How to be the Perfect Shooting Guest’ by Rosie Nickerson with illustrations by Oliver Preston

A step by step guide to modern shooting etiquette stuffed full of amusing quotes and anecdotes, which will instruct the Gun on how to be the perfect guest out shooting – and hence, how to be asked again. Inspired by the fact that so many more people are taking up shooting as adults and may have missed out on the vital apprenticeship in the field as a child, it encapsulates everything you need to know but no one will ever tell you out shooting as ‘you are just expected to know’.

The book covers in a logical way what happens, or should happen: from the moment you receive a shooting invitation, to arriving at the shoot, shooting safely and courteously, how to hold your own, how to mark your birds, what never to say and how to tip the keeper. Much of this information comes from almost a hundred interviews with beaters, keepers, flankers, pickers-up, shoot organisers, shoot owners, and grouse moor owning earls and dukes. Hilarious cartoons by Oliver Preston make this a very entertaining book on shooting, the perfect gift for any shooting man or woman, either novice shot or experienced Gun.

‘Brat Race’ by Norman Thelwell

From names, toys and birthday parties, to pets, health and happiness, all elements of childhood are depicted in the artist’s inimitable and entertaining style.

A simple, straightforward and easy-to-follow guide for training all breeds of gundogs. Written by two leading experts the book features sound, practical advice and is aimed at both the novice and the more experienced trainer.

‘Practical Gundog Training’ by Nick Ridley and Fran Ardley

Nick Ridley and Fran Ardley have five decades of combined experience of training and working their gundogs in the field, so there are very few situations that they haven’t encountered. In this straightforward and easy-to-follow guide, they share their expert knowledge and advice with both the novice and the more experienced trainer, enabling them to get the most out of their gundogs.

Practical Gundog Training takes a different approach to previous publications and instead of focusing solely on one breed, it concentrates on exercises that owners of all gundog breeds can follow. Although aimed at the gundog owner who plans to work their dog in the shooting field, the book will also be useful to those trainers who own pet gundog breeds.

Training scenarios including the place board, whistle work and working with more than one dog are featured. Each subject covers various exercise options, initial training and refresher training, which is especially important at the end of a busy working season.

New paperback edition - As well as founding the Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust, Peter Scott was an accomplished ornithologist, sportsman, broadcaster and painter. Published in partnership with the WWT, this book charts the remarkable life of one of Britain’s greatest conservationists.

'Peter Scott and the Birth of Modern Conservation' by Chris Moore with foreword by Dafila Scott

Peter Scott was a remarkable man who led an extraordinary life. Writer, artist, broadcaster, conservationist, sportsman; in any one of his chosen fields he would have been remembered as someone who made a difference. That he excelled in all of these is perhaps the main reason why his life remains an inspiration to others more than thirty years after his death. To his chosen fields, Peter brought a restless energy, boundless enthusiasm, integrity and determination to succeed.

This new biography charts his life, from the young boy who grew up in the shadow of the tragic death of his famous father to the co-founder of the World Wildlife Fund and a major international figure in wildlife conservation. Along the way he became a passionate wildfowler, an internationally renowned artist, Olympic medal winner, wartime hero, British national glider champion and popular broadcaster who was heavily involved in the development of natural history programmes at the BBC. The book draws in part upon previously unpublished letters and papers discovered in his home during preparations to open it to the public, and casts a new light on some of the events that helped change a passionate hunter of wild geese into the most fervent champion for their survival.

With the current crisis of global warming and the threat of mass extinction of wildlife across the globe, Peter’s story is a vivid reminder of the challenges we face and of what we stand to lose.

A superb collection of trout fishing cartoons accompanied by humorous captions, which capture the joy and the frustration of the sport.

‘Rod Rage: The Trials of Trouting’ by Paul Dady

This humorous collection of illustrations depicts the trout angler’s anguish and anticipation in pursuit of the ‘gentle art’.

The author and illustrator Paul Dady believes that ‘Fishing doesn’t actually clear the mind. It does, however, given the opportunity, tend to clutter it with altogether more agreeable stuff ... usually.’

From knots to lucky underwear and appalling hauling to woeful weather, many ‘trouters’ will identify with the scenarios and comments featured in this quirky portrayal. 
Contrasting cartoon styles convey the different moods of each scene and are guaranteed to catch the reader’s attention.
