Bryn Parry Mad Dogs & Englishmen: Shooting Cartoons
STACKPOLE BOOKS 184037232X / 9781840372328 Hardcover BOOK
Shooting & dog cartoons - capture the fun & frustration felt by field sportsmen as they enjoy their sport with their not so faithful canine companions. Full color; 9x9 inches, 124 pgs.
'Mad Dogs and Englishmen is a collection of Bryn's shooting and dog cartoons. It gives an insight into a world that can really only be understood by a participant for whom it is more than a sport; it is a way of life.
Bryn Parry is one of Britain's best known countryside cartoonists. His cartoons appear in The Field and The Shooting Gazette each month and he has illustrated countless products with his witty, detailed and perceptive pictures. His cartoons capture the fun and frustration felt by field sportsmen as they enjoy their sport with their not so faithful canine companions. Bryn followed family tradition on leaving school and joined the Army, serving ten years in the Royal Green Jackets before deciding to leave and make a living from the somewhat less traditional career of cartooning. Undaunted by constant rejection of his early works, he taught himself to picture frame and earned a subsistence living by caricaturing Regimental Messes in the tradition of Snaffles. A cartoon of the Lloyd's building that upset the committee but amused the inhabitants, led to City commissions and then to cartoons of shooting. This book, Mad Dogs and Englishmen, is a collection of Bryn's shooting and dog cartoons.It gives an insight into a world that can really only be understood by a participant for whom it is more than a sport; it is a way of life.
