The feel-good place to buy books
The Keen Foxhunter's Miscellany by Peter Holt
An intriguing collection of 350 entries on the subject of fox hunting past and present. Everything to do with fox hunting is here, including hunting eccentricities such as Mad Jack Mytton and Harry, Marquis of Hastings, whose tendency to arrive on the field two hours late and sozzled made his brief Mastership of the Quorn a disaster.
This appealing anthology is set to become an essential addition to the library of keen foxhunters everywhere
Definitely enough quirky and amusing additions to enliven all lovers of the chase.
An amusing collection of 'fascinating facts', stories and quotes about hunting... Even the most knowledgable hunting person will glean something from this smart little book, and I expect it to fill a lot of stockings this Christmas. Perfect for bedside, loo-side or perhaps, on the dullest day, covertside.
