Excellent 162 page HARDCOVER volume (1993 edition) covering the life and work of A. B. Frost, prominent sporting artist and illustrator of the 19th and early 20th centuries.
The famous hunting and shooting prints are illustrated here, and this is a great opportunity for collectors and lovers of hunting art, as the original portfolios command prohibitive prices for most collectors. Frost´s 1895 prints, originally published by Scribner´s are reproduced in this volume. They include:
Autumn Woodcock Shooting
Autumn Grouse Shooting
Quail--A Dead Stand
Quail--A Covey rise
Rabbit Shooting
Summer Woodcock
Prarie Chickens
Shooting English Snipe
Shooting Ducks from a blind
Ducks from a Battery
Bay Snipe Shooting
Rail Shooting
Further, the 1903 Frost Shooting Pictures, entitled The Day´s Shooting are also reproduced. They are in color, as are the 1895 pictures. They are very popular and having an volume such as this, is good fortune for all hunters, shooters and art lovers alike.
A. B. Frost was perhaps the finest hunting illustrator and artist of the late 19th century. He rendered work for Winchester, as well as illustrations for leading books of the day, including work for Theodore Roosevelt, and Joel Chandler Harris.

Generally, postage to Europe for most of my books is in the $25.00 range, and quite a bit less to Canada and USA addresses. This is due to high postage rates world-wide, and the USPS is raising fees once again in May 2008!
