The book Poachers and Poaching by John Watson, published in 1891, is a comprehensive study of the illegal hunting and fishing practices that were prevalent in England during the 19th century. The author delves into the history and culture of poaching, exploring the motivations behind this illegal activity and the methods employed by poachers to evade the law.Watson provides a detailed account of the various types of poaching, including deer hunting, hare coursing, and salmon fishing. He also examines the social and economic factors that contributed to the rise of poaching, such as poverty and the enclosure of common lands.The book is not only a historical account of poaching but also a call to action. Watson argues that poaching is a threat to the sustainability of wildlife populations and that it is the responsibility of society to put an end to this illegal activity. He advocates for stricter laws and enforcement measures, as well as education and outreach programs to raise awareness about the importance of conservation.Overall, Poachers and Poaching is an informative and thought-provoking read that sheds light on a controversial topic in English history. It offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between humans and the natural world and highlights the need for greater environmental awareness and protection.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
