Henry P. Davis - anyone have any info?
I recently received a research letter that indicated a gun I own was ordered by a Henry P. Davis who was the Secretary of the "American Wildlife Institution"
This was an early conservation organization that was active in the 1930s through the early 50s. They published a bimonthly magazine, but availability is limited to a few university collections.
I am wondering if this gentleman was the same Henry. P Davis who was a writer for Sports Afield, published books on gun dog training and also wrote the forward for Nash Buckingham's Bloodlines.
Anyone have any information that might point me in the right direction?
