All about ferrets and rats by
Not academic book
In the following pages, we have given a complete review of the ever-important rat exterminating subject, from a practical man's point of view. The essay on the Ferret has been exhaustively treated, is a special feature of the work, and will be found of great value to the rat-ridden part of the community, as well as to the fancier and naturalist. " The Hat " has been handled from a universal point of view, and the book has been prepared from the writer's practical notes during his thirty years' study of bats and Hat Extermination.Contents of the book
