Excerpt from Sporting in Both Hemispheres
The Author of the following pages feels it necessary to apologize to the reader for the very discursive, and, in some respects, disconnected character of the little work he offers to his perusal, which, indeed, is merely a simple, yet faithful record of many scenes and adventures that have formed some of the sunny spots in his long and varied career through life's wilderness.

Excerpt from Sporting in Both Hemispheres
The Author of the following pages feels it necessary to apologize to the reader for the very discursive, and, in some respects, disconnected character of the little work he offers to his perusal, which, indeed, is merely a simple, yet faithful record of many scenes and adventures that have formed some of the "sunny spots" in his long and varied career through life's wilderness.
He does not aspire to the character of either a first-rate sportsman or close observer, but gives his own views and impressions on the different subjects contained in this narrative, satisfied, at least as far as he is concerned, with having realized the school-boy prophecy - "Forsitan hæc olim meminisse juvabit."
Although the earlier scenes must be traced through a long vista of intervening years, some of them may be interesting, particularly at this moment, to the general reader, and to those who well remember the quiet and happy security with which we enjoyed our sports and pastimes in the East; and even should the Author meet that critical severity he doubtless deserves, he feels convinced of sympathy from his brethren of the rivers, woods, and fields.
