Century. Eccentricity is often regarded as an attractive and even an endearing trait but, as has been remarked of the music of the bagpipes, it is often distance which lends the enchantment. Of none of the variations of eccentricity is this more true than of "The Mad Hatters," the sporting eccentrics who flourished uniquely in England in the nineteenth century. Against this background, the author describes the death-throes of a disappearing species. In this study the author brings into brilliantly close focus an extravagant life-style which flamed and died on the hunting-field and the race-course, the gaming- rooms and the sporting-grounds of England's green and pleasant land.* A NEAR VG++ text copy of the 1st./1st. with minor faults reducing it to VG+. Now in a protected dust jacket.* 1987-10-21. n. Seller Inventory # 9353
