Lot Details

Lot 216
[IRAN-HUNTING] STOBBE, L. H. O.[TTO] (Doctor). Hunting in Persia.
Salt Lake City: self published, [1963]. First edition, inscribed by the author on the front endpaper. Publisher's green cloth in dust jacket. 9 x 6 inches (23 x 15 cm); xii, 103, [1] pp.; frontispiece, plates after photographs throughout. Very minor jacket wear, in all a fine copy.
"Hunting in Persia is not a travelogue guide book, nor a factual expert sports-hunting book. Neither is it an authoritative sui generis 'Inside Book' nor a novel, but is a unique rendition of human interest experiences with a humble flare toward cementing of friendships through mutual amusement, through a subject that all Iranians love." Includes chapters on the wild-life of Iran; Persian hunting psychology; the gazelle hunt; the boar hunt; the tiger hunt; the pheasant hunt; the big-horn wild sheep hunt; etc." --from the jacket copy.
