The Queen's Hounds and Stag-Hunting Recollections

About this book

First published in 1897, just at the end of the Victorian age, this book is a glimpse into a world that few would ever see, the hunting lodges and estates of the upper echelons of British society. Including chapters on Deer, the new school of hunting, kennels and stables, banks and ditches, Ascot affairs, French horses, the empire and the republic and many more. This text has been republished here for its historical and cultural significance. Including a new introduction on the Foxhound.
