Any of Rutledge's works are well worth having. Bird Dog Days has general chapters on dogs in general, grouse hunting in Pennsylvania with and without dogs, 4 chapters on birds (wild quail for those of you who are not from the South), a chapter on ringnecks, and two chapters on sportsmanship. I found my copy on Amazon; it was used (though it looks like it just came off of the shelf at Barnes & Noble). There is some issue with the book's publication hence the high price. PS: John P. Bailey was from Coffeeville, MS.
