Excerpt from The Game Birds of the Coasts and Lakes of the Northern States of America: A Full Account of the Sporting Along Our Sea-Shores and Inland Waters, With a Comparison of the Merits of Breech-Loaders and Muzzle-Loaders In preparing this work, after I had written the account of Florida, which, as a sporting country, had never been fully described, and was to occupy the principal part of my attention, and when I came to the second division, that relating to the game birds of our waters and coasts generally, I found so much in a book on a kindred subject, which I had written years ago, that I concluded I could do no better than quote from it freely. The directions therein given are as correct now as then, the in formation as well founded, and I hope the reader will find the stories of sporting excursions as interesting.
