Greg Gillespie integrates critical perspectives from cultural history, cultural studies, literary criticism, and cultural geography to analyze the themes of authorship, sport, science, and nature. Blending these interdisciplinary perspectives, he produces a unique theoretical lens to study narratives of early imperial sport hunting that prevailed before the rise of western Canada's hunting tourism industry in the late 19th century.Sharply written and evocatively illustrated, "Hunting for Empire" will appeal to students and scholars of culture, sport, geography, and history, and to general readers interested in stories of hunting, empire, and the Canadian wilderness., Despite Canada’s vast wilderness and outdoor heritage, the history of sport hunting remains at the periphery of academic thought.
