Hunter London 1816. Second edition. Inscribed 'To R Rising Esq with the author's compliments' on the blank preliminary leaf. Most recently from the library of Australian firearms collector Douglas Mills. With provenance notes on the upper free endpaper and on a loosely inserted business card of UK bookseller C. E. Cheshire. In his diary Peter Hawker recorded visiting Robert Rising in July 1816: 'Proceeded from London by the mail to Norwich where we arrived on the evening of the 6th and proceeded in a chaise to Mr. Rising's at Horsey 130 miles from London'. This was soon after publication of this book which Hawker noted in his diary entry for June 9: 'Published my second edition of Instructions to Young Sportsmen previously to leaving town.' Hawker seems to have stayed with Rising until July 12 and presumably gifted this copy of the book to him during that time. Horsey Hall Robert Rising's residence is in Norfolk. N unknown
