This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to Irish fox hunting, being a history of its notable figures, groups, and events. With a wealth of information on a great number of packs, this volume will be of considerable utility to those with an interest in the history of Irish hunting, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Kildare Hounds", "The Curraghmore", "The Ward Union Hounds", "The Meath Hounds", "The Louth Hounds", "En Route to Galway", "The Galway Hounds", "The Carlow and Island Hunt Hounds", "The Tipperary Hounds", "The Westmeath Hounds", "The Cashelmore Hounds", "The Limerick Foxhounds", et cetera.

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.
