Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fox-Hunting in the Shires IN this volume Mr. Dale has given the results of his experience in the hunting fields of Leicester shire and the surrounding counties, and has treated his subject from the dual standpoint, for which his earlier work so fits him, of hunting historian and hunting - correspondent. His chapters are almost em tirely practical, though he digresses where necessary to criticise, always briefly and to the point, such modern questions as the presence of ladies in the field, the latest development of the capping system, and the question of hunting dress and hunting morals. For the most part, and with some few such exceptions, he gives us minute descriptions of the country known somewhat vaguely as the Shires, and some very excellent advice as to the purchase or schooling of the right kind of horse for hunting that country. The photographs obtained by Mr. R. B. Lodge, with considerable guiding assistance from the author, have here and there been supplemented, with a View to illustrating in as practical fashion as possible the main features of the book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memories of the Shires Pessimists with gloomy faces will tell you that hunting is at an end, and that the fox will Soon be extinct; but I am firmly convinced that the sport will rise triumphant from the ashes of the past, and with a brighter future will become established on a broader basis.

Download or read book A Century of English Fox Hunting Classic Reprint written by George F. Underhill and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Century of English Fox-Hunting For a century the historian must rely upon trustworthy records. In regard to fox-hunting the records are numerous, ' but their authenticity is doubtful. At the beginning of the century the hunting correspondent was unknown, and it was left to the local poet to commemorate in rhyme the doings of the chase. The main object was to place the names of the local gentry in rhyme, bisect the product with local geography, and trisect the result with hunting phraseology. Masters of hounds, with a few exceptions, were either negligent in posting up their hunting diaries, or did not pretend to keep a diary. They cared nothing for fame, as presented by journalism nor could journalism have given them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Complete Foxhunter It may be asked, Who wants to hunt in the suburbs of any large and Of course there can be only one answer to such a question; but none the less it is a fact that many once good hunting countries have been curtailed owing to the extension of suburban districts. The result of this extension has been that all sorts of people have migrated from the inner to the extreme outer circles of London and of all large provincial towns, and have in their new abodes found themselves within reasonable touch of hunting. Many of these migrants, of course, are in no wise concerned when they happen to see hounds or hunting folk on the road; but others have been attracted, at first probably by the panoply of the chase, and afterwards by the sport itself.

The Earl of Kilreynard To this end I have devoted the best of my days, and, with an apology to Mr. Punch's College of Arms, I leave it to the kind reader to say whether or not the result is eminently satisfactory. The life-like portraits with which the treatise is embellished have not met with the unqualified approval of the celebrities they so strikingly represent.
