As much as any other art it requires study ; and success is not attainable with- out much practice. There are certain rules which should be thoroughly understood ; if followed faith- fully in daily practice they will help more than mere observation. Printed rules for carving are usually accompanied with cuts showing the position of the joint or fowl on the platter and having lines indicating the method of cutting. But this will not be attempted in this manual as such illustrations seldom prove helpful ; for the actual thing before us bears faint resemblance to the pictures which give us only the surface with no hint of what may be inside. But a more satisfactory way is to make a careful study before the material is cooked and thus learn the exact position of every joint bone and muscle. Become familiar with a shoulder or a leg of mutton ; locate the joints by moving the bones in the joints or by cutting it into sections some time when it is to be used for a stew. Or remove the bone in the leg by scraping the meat away at either end. Learn to distinguish the different cuts of meat. The best way to learn about carving poultry and game is to cut them up for a stew or fricassee provided care be taken not to chop them but to disjoint them skilfully. But do not make your first effort in the art at a company dinner." ; G <br/> <br/> Little, Brown, Boston, [Roberts Brothers publishers, Boston; University Press, John Wilson and Son, Cambridge], 1900, [©1886] hardcover
