Nimrod, British Field Sports, Sporting: British Field Sports, Nimrod (Charles James Apperley), London, 1838, Folio viii, 144pp, with engraved frontispiece, additional engraved title-page with vignette, 21 full-page engraved plates, very light foxing to plates. later red binding Charles James Apperley (1777-1843), known by his pen name 'Nimrod', was a celebrated British sportswriter and hunting correspondent. Apperley gained popularity for his vivid and enthusiastic accounts of hunting, horseracing, and other field sports. Born into a family with military connections, Apperley spent much of his early life immersed in equestrian culture. His writings appeared in the 'Sporting Magazine' and brought a fresh, authoritative voice to the literature of British sporting life. "Nimrod" is best remembered for his detailed descriptions of hunts, horses, and the intricacies of rural sporting life. His works often blended humor, knowledge, and insightful social commentary, making him a beloved figure in 19th-century sports literature. Apperley's later years were spent living abroad due to financial struggles, but his legacy as a sporting writer endured, with "Nimrod" remaining synonymous with British hunting culture. Sporting: British Field Sports is a folio edition from 1838, edited by Charles James Apperley under his famous pen name "Nimrod." This lavishly illustrated volume is a treasure trove of British sporting life, capturing the essence of field sports such as hunting, shooting, and angling. The book features large engravings and vignettes based on paintings by celebrated artists including Thomas Gainsborough, Edwin Landseer, and others. The 21 full-page plates, along with numerous in-text vignettes, bring to life scenes of British countryside sporting events, making this an artistic and cultural masterpiece. In addition to the visual elements, the literary contributions of well-known figures such as Thomas Hood and John Hamilton Reynolds enrich the text with observations on sporting life and field sports techniques.

Franck, Richard Northern Memoirs, calculated for the Meridian of Scotland wherein most or all of the Cities, Citadels, Sea Ports, Castles, Forts, Fortresses, Rivers and Rivulets are compendiously described … To which is added, the Contemplative and Practical Angler, by way of Diversion. With a Narrative of that Dextrous and Mysterious Art Experimented in England, and perfected in more Remote and Solitary Parts of Scotland. By way of Dialogue. Writ in the Year 1658, but not till now made Publick. London: for the author. To be sold by Henry Mortclock, 1694. First edition, 8vo (16.8 x 11cm), xxxix 304 pp., 19th-century green crushed morocco by Francis Bedford, spine richly gilt in compartments, French fillet border gilt to covers, marbled endpapers, all edges gilt [Westwood & Satchell pp. 100-101] The Library of a Scottish Gentleman A rare and noted oddity of 17th-century travel writing and angling literature, containing the first description of salmon-fishing in Scotland, a ‘pioneering account of fly-fishing for trout’ (ODNB), and a now notorious passage relating the author's confrontation with Izaak Walton at Stafford over Walton's assertion in The Compleat Angler of the parthenogenesis of pike from pickerel weed. Richard Franck (c.1624-1708) has been plausibly identified as a parliamentarian cavalry officer who was stationed in Scotland with Thornhaugh's Nottinghamshire regiment during the 1650s. 'Northern Memoirs is a most unusual narrative, marked by Franck's eclectic interests and given ripe flavour by his often highly colourful judgements. In the first instance it is possible to take this simply as a generally appreciative assessment of the people, landscape, and heritage of Scotland not inconsistent with the growing body of travel literature on that country over the next 100 years which would culminate in the acute observations of Thomas Pennant and Samuel Johnson … Franck is also, somewhat incongruously, an enthusiastic angler. Observations on local aquatic life and recondite disputes about fishing techniques intrude so frequently as to unbalance the narrative, creating a sense that Franck, with probably a very limited formal education, possessed little or no intellectual discipline' (ibid.)
