Nothing can be learned of George Putnam Smith personally from major biographic and bibliographical sources. However, he was a lawyer for he identifies himself as being a member of the New York Bar. Probably he was also a sportsman.The full title of Smith's small work is The Law of Field Sports, A Summary of the Rules of Law Affecting American Sportsmen. In his Preface, Smith advises: "The object of this little book is to provide the American sportsman with a succinct statement of the rules of law affecting him in the acquisition of his outfit and in the pursuit of game.

Reeves.
