A. R. Harding's 'Mink Trapping: A Book of Instruction Giving Many Methods of Trapping' offers a comprehensive guide on various successful mink trapping techniques suitable for a multitude of geographic locations across America. With content sourced from seasoned trappers, presented through an aggregation of articles primarily featured in the Hunter-Trader-Trapper (H-T-T), Harding provides a pragmatic approach, encompassing a wealth of knowledge, minor editorial refinements, and the promise of regional relevance. The book employs a direct, didactic prose, cataloguing each method with precision, and situates itself firmly within the utilitarian literary category, particularly serving those with an interest in rural and wilderness survival skills. A. R. Harding was a prolific figure in the trapping and outdoor survival literature of the early 20th century, with his publications stemming from a deep personal and professional investment in trapping and game conservation. The origins of 'Mink Trapping' are entrenched in Harding's desire to disseminate hard-won knowledge from an array of expert trappers to a wider audience. This impetus is born out of Harding's recognition of both the practicality of trapping in rural economies and the cultural significance of trapping in American heritage. 'Mink Trapping' serves not only as an instructional tome for the novice and expert trapper alike but also as a cultural artifact, preserving the ingenuity and regional variances of a traditional American craft. Readers seeking an authentic and detailed exploration of trapping methodologies, with an assurance of tried-and-tested wisdom, will find Harding's work an indispensable resource. The book stands as recommended reading for those engaged in trapping and outdoor education, as well as historians interested in the practical heritage of American pioneering skills.
