Originally published in the 1920s. The author has drawn from his
hunting experiences of many years to produce a book containing many
recollections of runs with packs of hounds in the North of England
and elsewhere. Each chapter also contains significant amounts of
individual hunt history. Contents include: The North Durham Country
- The Braes of Derwent Country - The Haydon Country - The Tynedale
Country - The Morpeth Country - Zetland Hunt - Some Yorkshire and
Western Midland Hunts - Long Points and the Heythrop - The
Conditions of Hunting - War Time and After. Etc. Many of the
earliest foxhunting books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic
works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the
original text and artwork.
