About this Item
This book is about dogs used by sportsmen in Britain, and about the field sports in which they take part. It also contains a good deal of reminiscence, and information about the countryside, from ragwort to ferrets and the scent of lilac after rain. It is written with three intentions: 1) To interest those who are fortunate enough to know the pleasures of the countryside at first hand and perhaps add a little to their knowledge of the dogs they love. 2) To give those who know little about hunting dogs and field sports the story, in non-technical language, of their history, their background, and their place in the English way of life. 3) To provide such information as will enable anyone to say, when justified, "that's a good dog". It is illustrated throughout with wood engravings and pen and ink vignettes.The book is tight and square and in very good condition. Blue boards show some minor bumping; the dust jacket is in good condition and is protected by mylar. There are 2 small tears on the front and some chipping on the back. This was never a library book.
