<p>This is a highly original, profusely illustrated, and well researched account of deer parks. With humility and respect Fletcher touches on errors commonly made by archaeologists and historians, taking issue with long held theories while drawing on his lifetime working with deer to formulate plausible explanations as to, for example, why they were not domesticated until the 20th century, how parks evolved from haga and elricks, why deer parks were created throughout Eurasia, why fallow so rapidly ousted red deer from medieval British parks, and much more. He ranges from meat sharing amongst chimpanzees to the symbolism of venison as the elite product of hunting, ensconced within seven centuries of the English Royal Warrant, through the 300 year long prohibition on its sale within England and the continuing illegality of selling hunted venison within the USA, the aristocratic pursuit of park breaking, and the imposition of the Black Act. He stresses the cross-cultural importance of rulers being seen to hunt, compares ancient Chinese parks, the colossal Asian ring hunts, and the water hunts of Germany as expressions of man's urge to contain deer. Within Britain, which has for a thousand years held more deer parks than any other part of the world, he describes how deer were fed, transported, enclosed, captured, castrated and housed, and how they were hunted in the confines of parks. The recent theory as to the use of trenches for handling deer in medieval Scotland is explored. The international symbolism of white deer, collared deer and enclosed deer is discussed. Recently, parks provided deer for English carted hunts and Scottish sporting estates; now we recognise their ecological and recreational value. We learn how parklands may be our spiritual home - the environment in which we are most content - and that parks have always been, in a fashion, designed landscapes.<br></p>

Deer hunting and deer hunters are drastically changing each year. To learn new techniques for hunting deer and have more places to hunt, Iβve interviewed some of the best deer hunters in the nation and share their tactics in βHow to Hunt Deer Like a Pro: Volume II.β<br/><br/>In: Chapter 10, Jacob Lamar tells you his tactics for consistently taking older-age-class bucks on public lands in several states; Chapter 11, Bob Walker explains how to find places on public lands where you can hunt that 99% of the other hunters never have considered hunting; The Bonus Chapter, David Ramey tells you how, where, when and with what equipment to take big Kansas bucks on public lands by hunting in 100-degree weather when others wonβt hunt. As more land is leased, more hunters are hunting public lands, but most wonβt be successful; Chapter 13, Mark Drury, his family and his guests take mature bucks every season by having more small places to hunt rather than one large property. Drury explains the strategy of having satellite farms to hunt that only may be 50-150 acres each or less; Chapter 15, Pat Reeve, who hunts far-northern states and Canada, says, βI donβt like hunting for mature bucks until the weather is 20 degrees or less;β Chapter 4, Dr. Larry Marchinton says that funnels are the most-reliable stand sites to hunt for big bucks and tells why; Chapter 7, youβll learn that Solunar Tables arenβt the only criteria for determining when mature bucks move the most; and Chapter 1, youβll learn how Luke Brewster took a world-record whitetail.
