1912. From the Introduction: I do not pretend to claim any literary merit for these plain, unadorned little sketches. There is nothing particularly striking about them; they do not bring to light any sensational revelations. They are just pages taken from the hunting diary of a man who loves open-air sport, and to whom Nature, grand and beautiful, is an inexhaustible source of delight and joy. Contents: An Elephant Hunt in Ceylon; A Tiger Hunt in India; Pig-Sticking; Shooting Alpine Ibex; A Fourteen-Pointer; My First Capercailzie; Stalking Roe-Buck in Silesia; Grouse Shooting in Scotland; Two Chamois Hunts; The Phantom Stag; Blackbuck Hunting; A Drive at Mirzapur; and A Hunting Expedition in the Ganges Delta.His Imperial and Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the German Empire and of Prussia is the author of 'From My Hunting Day Book' with ISBN 9781417934126 and ISBN 1417934123.
