Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sportsman's Cyclopaedia: Comprising a Complete Elucidation of the Science and Practice of Hunting, Shooting, Coursing, Racing, Fishing, Hawking, Cockfighting, and Other Sports and Pastimes of Great Britain, Interspersed With Entertaining and Illustrative Anecdotes At the same time, the author and compiler very frankly acknowledges, that he has freely availed himself of whatever has hitherto appeared in print upon subjects connected with the present publication: this, however, was not a task of very great or extensive labour; since, comparatively speak ing, little has been written upon subjects evidently interest ing to the human feelings above all others. The reason is obvious: Sportsmen capable of expressing their opinions upon paper are almost uniformly placed in situations and. Circumstances where literary exertion is not necessary as a means of existence; and, being occupied with the fascia nating pleasures of the Chase, feel no desire to give their Opinions to the world thro' the medium of the press. In consequence, works of this nature have been for the most part, put together by men, who, whatever might be their attainments in other respects, possessed no practical know ledge of Field Sports. These observations are not intended to apply to Veterinary Subjects, upon which many publica tions have appeared, several of them evidently the pro ductions of acute and enlightened minds; tho' the art of healing, as far as relates to horses, must still be considered in its infancy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Year of Sport and Natural History: Shooting, Hunting, Coursing, Falconry and Fishing, With Chapters on Birds of Prey, the Nidification of Birds and the Habits of British Wild Birds and Animals While superintending the literary department of Black and W/zz'te, I prevailed upon a number of competent writers on Sport and Natural History to deal week by week, the whole of one-year round, with these two topics.

Download or read book Greyhound Nation written by Edmund Russell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-01-11 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edmund Russell's much-anticipated new book examines interactions between greyhounds and their owners in England from 1200 to 1900 to make a compelling case that history is an evolutionary process. Challenging the popular notion that animal breeds remain uniform over time and space, Russell integrates history and biology to offer a fresh take on human-animal coevolution. Using greyhounds in England as a case study, Russell shows that greyhounds varied and changed just as much as their owners. Not only did they evolve in response to each other, but people and dogs both evolved in response to the forces of modernization, such as capitalism, democracy, and industry. History and evolution were not separate processes, each proceeding at its own rate according to its own rules, but instead were the same.
