Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The "ABC" Of Riding to Hounds Before mounting, examine your girths, which in the case of a side saddle should be further tightened after the rider is Mounting seated. Also notice carefully your bits, to see that they hang sufficiently low in the horse's mouth to bear against the bars of his jaw and not against his cheeks. Most horses are over bitted either in weight or severity. Look especially at the throat latch, which can hardly be too loose. If tight, it will not only distress your horse, but in extreme cases, cause a rush of blood to his head. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cross Country With Horse and Hound The author makes no attempt to set up a code for officers of the hunt. He states the conditions and moves of the game from a member's and not from an Ofiicial's standpoint. He has never occupied any position in the hunt except that Of a modest riding member who dearly loved the sport, especially the hunting part Of it. His ambition has been to keep in sight of the hounds, and he is quite contented to let the racing men and jealous riders share all the honours they can extract from the satisfaction Of being called first flight men. A more important claim is that he has had considerable experience in breed ing, rearing, and schooling hunters that have been for the most part a credit to the system adopted in their training, and has been fortunate in bringing to this work quite ex tensive Observations of many different packs of hounds in European countries, as well as in the United States and Can ada. His chief aim is to encourage this most noble sport for sport's sake, to contrast the genuine sportsman with the artificial, and to pay to that noblest Of animals, the horse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hunting Field With Horse and Hound in America: The British Isles and France Blessed be the thoughts and recollections That drive the ills and cares of life away, While they bring again serene re flections Of all the joys we had along the way. Cross Country with Horse and Hound has proved a happy disappointment, especially to the author. There being but few hunt clubs in America, it was argued that there were comparatively few who were personally interested in cross country riding to hounds; it was therefore With some misgivings that the book was brought to light. The effort, however, has received such hearty endorsement from the reading public in general, and has had such pleasant things said about it by the hunting fraternity in particular, both in England and America, that the writing of this second work has become doubly enjoyable. It may be said to have been undertaken in response to an encore. Next to a cross country ride itself, comes the pleasure of living it over again with whoever has the ear for hearing it, and an imagination keen enough to supply what neither pen nor pencil is able to produce.

Download or read book Fox and Hounds Classic Reprint written by Edward William Dirom Cuming and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fox and Hounds Osbaldeston's hounds, in the year 1826, when that pack was at the height of its well-merited celebrity. Let us also indulge ourselves with a fine morning in the first week of February, and at least two hundred well-mounted men by the cover's side. Time being called - say a quarter past eleven, nearly our great grandfathers' dinner hour - the hounds approach the furze-brake, or the gorse, as it is called in that region. Hark in, hark! With a slight cheer, and perhaps one wave of his cap, says Mr. Osbaldeston,1 who long hunted his own pack, and in an instant he has not a bound at his horse's heels. In a very short time the gorse appears shaken in various parts of the cover -apparently from an unknown cause, not a single hound being for some minutes visible. Presently one or two appear, leaping over some old furze which they cannot push through, and exhibit to the field their glossy skins and spotted sides. Oh, you beauties! Exclaims some old Meltonian, rapturously fond of the sport. Two minutes more elapse; another hound slips out of a cover, and takes a short turn outside, with his nose to the ground and his stern lashing his side - thinking, no doubt, he might touch on a drag, should Reynard have been abroad in the night. Hounds have no business to think, thinks the second whipper-in, who observes him; but one crack of his whip, with Rasselas, Rasselas, Where are you going, Rasselas P Get to cover, Rasselas and Rasselas.

Breese and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Unwritten Laws of Organized Foxhunting and Comments on the Usages of the Sport of Riding to Hounds in America One of the most detrimental things that could have occurred to organized hunting in America wasthe atmosphere of society rather than sports manship given to the early hunt clubs. Riding to foxhounds cannot properly exist in any locality in the world unless every member of the community is interested in its welfare. The noble sport has lived successfully through two cen turies in Great Britain because it has been con ducted in the most democratic manner possible, and mere social or financial status has nothing to do with one's privilege to subscribe to and hunt with the local hounds. His qualities as a true sportsman and his support of hunting according to his means are all the qualifications that are asked of a man. Hunt Clubs are practically non-existent in Great Britain, but let it not be thought for a moment that hunting organizations are not infinitely better managed than in America. It can truthfully be said that we, as a rule, have been hopelessly deficient in everything connected with organized hunting from showing ordinary courtesy to land owners, and the preservation of the hunting country as such, to the breeding and management of hounds. British hunting in modern times is generally on a subscription basis and managed by committees often elected by the subscribers or trustees, but never with the attitude of social superiority, often taken towards the rest of the community by the American hunt Club.
