Excerpt from Hare-Hunting and Harriers: With Notices of Beagles and Basset Hounds
IN the following pages a keen all-round sportsman has given what may claim to be in the nature Of an exhaustive account, both practical and historic, of hare-hunting. While he has not hesitated to draw on the works Of such classic authorities as Somervile, Beckford and Stonehenge, it is mainly to his own personal knowledge Of a fine sport, supplemented where necessary by information generously given by living authorities, including many Masters Of existing packs of barriers, beagles, or bassets, that his book owes its extraordinary interest.
