[ A special Canadian edition] published in 1888. This book contains an advertisement for the W.W.Greener "Trap" Gun. The add states that;"It is a new and improved model of this most popular gun.Designed specially to the requirements of American Sportsmen,and,in addition to the usual improvements formed on modern complete guns,has Treble Grip from the Top Lever,and is well and tastily finished and elegantly engraved.
