With historical information and details of notable people and events, this volume is highly recommended for those with an interest in the history of English fox hunting, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Quorn Country-Melton Mowbray-Quorn Kennels-Quorn Hounds", "Mr. Boothby and Mr. Maynell", "Lord Sefton, Lord Foley, and Mr. Assheton Smith", "Mr. Osbaldeston, Sir Bellingham Graham, and Lord Southampton", "Sir Harry Goodricke, Mr. Holyoake Goodricke, and Mr. Rowland Errington", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive.
