Hunting: A Portrait

Instead of delving into the ethics of this deeply ingrained part of rural life in Great Britain and Ireland, Anne Holland portrays some of the hunting world's wonderful canine, equine, and human characters. Hunting has managed to cross all barriers of geography, class, and culture, and in this book it is shown to be not only the preserve of the British aristocracy, but an aspect of countryside that enfolds people from all walks of life.
