(From the back cover): When Stoneydale Press decided to compile a
comprehensive guidebook on field care for hunters and fishermen, we wanted
to combine the best information and directions available BOTH for the care
of trophies and proper techniques for caring for big game meat, small game,
fish, game birds and waterfowl - and to do it in one volume. We also wanted
to tough on the need of performing those field care techniques safely
because it is not always possible to accomplish field care under ideal
conditions. This Field Care Handbook accomplished those purposes.
 To achieve what we wanted, we acquired the rights to one of the best field
handbooks previously available that specifically covered the care of
trophies, big game or fish - namely. Duncan Gilchrist's "Big Game Hunter's
and Fisherman's Complete Guide to the Field Care of Trophies" - a guide that
came out of his 14 years in Alaska where he had to develop techniques that
worked with both a minimum of tools and limited access to materials. Then
we asked Duncan to revise and update his booklet, which he did, both in
regard to the text and photographs. So, within these pages you'll get a
completely updated and improved version of his techniques on the field care
of trophies.
 Finally,
to take the concept a step farther, we asked outdoor writer Bill Sager to
compile the very best information, photographs and illustrations available
on common sense, workable field care techniques for handling big game
animals, including elk, deer, antelope, caribou, hogs, etc., and small game
like rabbits and squirrels, plus upland game birds and waterfowl. Then we
asked him to further research and produce a chapter on field care cautions -
a chapter dealing with safety, clean-up procedures, hygiene, the avoidance
of disease, injuries, and other problems you'll need to be aware of to
protect yourself when performing the field care chores. This handbook is a
result of that effort. Dale A. Burk, Publisher
