This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique guide was first published in London 1849. Only a small quantity were printed, and it is now a very scarce item commanding high prices from specialist book dealers. READ COUNTRY BOOKS have republished it, using the original text as part of their HISTORY OF HUNTING series. The book consists of one hundred and twenty pages giving details of over one hundred and seventy packs of Foxhounds, Staghounds, Otter hounds and Harriers. Many have detailed notes on their favourite fixtures, names of Masters and Huntsmen and descriptions of their country. Some of these hunts no longer exist and this little book remains a testament to their historical importance. The notes on certain hounds with their breeding and characteristics will prove of much interest to today's huntsmen and hound breeders alike. This important work was the first book of reference available to the hunting world, which in those days was a great and influential body, comprising much of the wealth, rank, and station of the land. It is a fascinating read for any hunting enthusiast, historian, or indeed, anyone with an interest in the many hound breeds in existence today. "Hark to the cheering note! They've found him, see! The gorse is waving like a troubled sea He's gone away hark, halloo! To the cry! Like swallows skimming o'er the fields they fly." Many of the earliest hunting books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. READ COUNTRY BOOKS are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Download or read book The Fox Hunting Controversy 1781 2004 written by Allyson N. May and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: August 1781 saw the publication of a manual on fox hunting that would become a classic of its genre. Hugely popular in its own day, Peter Beckford's Thoughts on Hunting is often cited as marking the birth of modern hunting and continues to be quoted from affectionately today by the hunting fraternity. Less stressed is the fact that its subject was immediately controversial, and that a hostile review which appeared on the heels of the manual's publication raised two criticisms of fox hunting that would be repeated over the next two centuries: fox hunting was a cruel sport and a feudal, anachronistic one at that. This study explores the attacks made on fox hunting from 1781 to the legal ban achieved in 2004, as well as assessing the reasons for its continued appeal and post-ban survival. Chapters cover debates in the areas of: class and hunting; concerns over cruelty and animal welfare; party politics; the hunt in literature; and nostalgia. By adopting a thematic approach, the author is able to draw out the wider social and cultural implications of the debates, and to explore what they tell us about national identity, social mores and social relations in modern Britain.
