Observations On Fox-Hunting And The Management Of Hounds In The Kennel And The Field. Addressed To A Young Sportman, About To Undertake A Hunting Establishment
Author: Donald Cook
Publisher: Read Books Ltd
ISBN: 1447484053
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Originally published in 1826, this very early work on fox hunting is both expensive and hard to find in its first edition. This is a fascinating read for any fox hunting enthusiast or historian, and also contains much information that is still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.

Six Centuries of Foxhunting
Author: M. L. Biscotti
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 144224190X
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
Hunting literature had its beginnings as early as the fourteenth century, when nobles hunted stag, bear, fox, and other game on horseback. As foxhunting grew in popularity, literary works that covered the sport flourished, as well. In Six Centuries of Foxhunting: An Annotated Bibliography, M. L. Biscotti has compiled all books produced in Great Britain and the United States that pertain to, or mention, foxhunting with hounds. Arranged alphabetically by author, more than 2000 titles are included. Each entry features details such as place and year of publication, publisher, book size, page count, illustrations, and binding. Nearly every title is also annotated with a description of the book’s contents, and biographical sketches are provided for the most notable authors. Narratives, histories, illustrated works, verse, fiction, and even anti-hunting literature all have their place in this volume. Six Centuries of Foxhunting also features more than thirty images of book covers and foxhunting illustrations. With appendixes that contain author, title, and illustrator time lines, and separate author and title indexes, this comprehensive bibliography is a valuable resource for researchers, book dealers and collectors, and foxhunters.
