Interesting to see Parabola's choices as I have all three. I will also second the Jim Corbett books. So, I will throw in three English titles: 'The Modern Fowler' & 'The Modern Shooter' by James Wentworth-Day. I will also include a fictional one which is a sort of thriller along the '39 Steps' theme and that is 'A Rough Shoot' by Geoffrey Household. Lagopus.....
