This vintage book, originally published in 1889, contains a collection of hunting anecdotes from the nineteenth century. Providing a fascinating and authentic glimpse of England's sporting past, this is a volume that will appeal to those with an interest in the history of hunting, and one that would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "e;Malton to Wit"e;, "e;Malton as a Sporting Centre"e;, "e;Agnes and the Descendants"e;, "e;The Newstead Stud Farm"e;, "e;Queen Mary"e;, "e;Haricot"e;, "e;Caller Ou"e;, "e;Blink Ronny's Leger"e;, "e;Blair Athol"e;, "e;Ashgill and the Osbornes"e;, "e;A Carpet Sportsman"e;, "e;Middleham Moor Races"e;, "e;John Osborne"e;, "e;Mr. King"e;, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
