Synopsis
Excerpt from Racing and 'Chasing: A Collection of Sporting Stories
IN these days, when so many books are issued, some excuse seems to be required for the publication of a volume Of reprints. I can only plead the cordial recep tion which was given to my former books, Sketches in the Hunting Field,' and 'race Course and Covert Side,' by the critics and the readers to whom I eu deavoured specially to appeal. The world Of sport may be a limited one, but that its limits are enormous cannot be doubted by anybody who surveys the crowd at Epsom on the Derby Day, or at Aintree when the horses are at the post for the Grand National. I have to return thanks to Sir william ingram for the kind permission he gave me to republish those Of the following stories and sketches which appeared in the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News' during the years that I edited that journal.
