About this book
Theodore Roosevelt's hunting sketches cover the American bison, the black bear, the grisly bear, the cougar, a peccary hunt on the Nueces, hunting with hounds, wolves and wolf-hounds, and life in cowboy land. This is part two of his book The Wilderness Hunter, first published in 1893, here taken from a 1902 edition.
The opening chapter traces how the great buffalo herds disappeared after the railways came, and recalls a hunt his younger brother Elliott made toward the Staked Plains in early 1877. Roosevelt draws on his own experience near his ranch on the Little Missouri.
