The real Ryman setter

Description:

"Walter A. Lesser and Lisa M. Weisse detail the Rymans from their origins through the present day. Having bred and hunted wtih Ryman setters for more than 50 years, Lesser profiles the man George Ryman and how his breeding program used Laverack and Llewellin lines to create the ideal hunting setter. Lesser's gunning tales provide valuable insights into handling, training and hunting grouse and woodcock with setters. Weisse's thorough analysis of the historical record rewrites the history of the English setter."--
