The short foreword is well worth reading and bearing in mind. I did like the last sentence where the author says, Remember, it is our duty as sportsmen and women to eat what we shoot or catch. There is a wide range of quarry from deer to woodcock and salmon to wood pigeon and this is definitely a book to consider for Christmas, whatever your taste'. --Highland News With explicit pictures, it guides the cook on everything from plucking a pheasant to gutting a boar. With the game season now well underway and people looking for alternatives to turkey, this could be a very timely addition to the bookcase. --AGA Living 'Even if you were familiar with breasting out pigeons or pheasant, would you know how to prepare a squirrel, or boar, for the table?
