| Summary | "Steel Traps" by A. R. Harding is a practical guide on trapping techniques and equipment, likely written in the early 20th century. The text discusses various types of traps, their uses, effective trapping strategies, and care for both traps and pelts, appealing to both novice and experienced trappers. With an emphasis on the Newhouse traps, the book aims to provide readers with comprehensive knowledge about the art of trapping, including recommendations based on the author's extensive personal experience. The opening of the book introduces the concept of "trapping fever," a seasonal excitement that grips avid trappers as fall approaches. It highlights the economic and recreational benefits derived from trapping, estimating that the yearly income from fur catching exceeds $10 million. The introduction also establishes the author's credentials, stressing his years of experience in the field and his connections with fellow trappers and manufacturers. It sets the stage for the following chapters, which detail specific traps, their manufacturing, care, and proper setting techniques, building towards a practical understanding of trapping as both a skilled trade and leisure activity.
