Book Overview

Mountain Stream and Covert: Sketches of Country Life and Sport in England and Scotland (1897) is a collection of essays by Alexander Innes Shand that explore rural life and outdoor pursuits in the United Kingdom. The book is divided into two parts: the first focuses on the author's experiences fishing in mountain streams and the second on his adventures hunting game in the countryside. Throughout the book, Shand shares his observations and musings on the natural world, the people he encounters, and the joys and challenges of these traditional pastimes. The essays are written in a descriptive and engaging style that immerses the reader in the landscapes and activities Shand describes.
