The Life of a Fox - Written by Himself
About this book
This vintage book contains a collection of stories invented by a pack of fox hunters as to how a particular fox managed to outwit and outmanoeuvre the hunting party. The tales were told by each member in turn after a feast, and are presented here for the enjoyment of the reader. Entertaining and witty, these stories are highly recommended for those with an interest in the history of fox hunting. Contents include: "The Life of a Fox", "Wily's Story", "Cock-Tail's Story", "Craven's Story", "Pytchly's Story", "Dorset's Story", "Warwick's Story", "Chester's Story", "Devonian's Story", "Berkshire's Story", and "Sandy's Story". Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the history of fox hunting.
