Just finished the book and enjoyed it very much. Actually Norris' unfinished book turned out to be a rather small part; the majority of the book is letters between the Evans' and Norris, and descriptions of their visits to his home, Fairhill, and Amwell, his shooting club - an "old world" lifestyle for sure - and though they are worlds apart it evoked memories of some of my own experiences visiting and hunting with family and friends

Stories about the old days and upscale hunting and shooting experiences are very entertaining. However, such experiences and even more interesting experiences are had by people of means today. Just something to think about.
