The Sporting Repository: Containing Horseracing, Hunting, Coursing, Shooting (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sporting Repository: Containing Horseracing, Hunting, Coursing, Shooting
We cannot conclude without urging the necessity of the earliest communications from our correspondents in the country. From them we expect much, as their habits and situations of life afford them such ample opportunities of obliging us. Those who have already aided us in our plans will not, we hope, be tardy in noticing and transmitting any thing that may appear consistent with the nature of our work: we Shall thereby keep up a constant diversity of arrangement, that cannot fail of being interesting to every description of readers, but more especially to the british sportsman.
