Shooting: A Season Of Discovery
Co-hosting one of the countrys finest partridge and pheasant shoots with her husband The Duke of Rutland The Duchess (Emma) assumed she knew about shooting. Wrong. Talking to and watching every Gun loader beater and their dog - at their home Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire - slowly exposed a gaping chasm in her understanding of the sport and its relevance to our countryside. Undaunted in just one season she set herself a herculean task to visit over twenty contrasting shoots including John Dodds grouse moor at Glenogil Lord Barnards wild bird day at Raby Castle Michael Cannons partridge shoot at Stagfell Caerhays for pheasants in Cornwall wildfowling with Brent Pope in Norfolk pigeon shooting with Will Garfit and western Ireland for woodcock. She spanned the far extremities of the UK
meeting many dedicated people who are passionate about their sport. It was enormous fun but not without a few shocks and surprises. She learns that shooting today is as much about conservation bio-diversity and the sustainability of rural communities as it is a fun and challenging pastime for the half million people that shoot game a year. It is also fraught with politics - a moot and pertinent factor that will shape and determine its future. She joins the Guns on all the shoots and goes behind the scenes to talk to the people that it make it happen. Crucially shooting provides game meat. The book is peppered with recipes from generations of family favourites from Belvoir Castles kitchen; cooked and updated by TV chef Mike Robinson.
