Good, lacks dust-wrapper. "Of all our beasts of chase the fox is the most active, game, and beautiful. Long years ago he was a member of the vermin lis with a price upon his head, but he gradually emerged from ignominy until now he is in the highest favour, and second to none in the sport that he affords. Foxhunting to-day is as popular as ever it was, despite such drawbacks as wire, motor traffic, and glass-like roads, things of which our grandfathers knew nothing. .Very large fields attend the meets of the fashionable packs. Youthful foxhunters are will catered for by the Pony Clubs. In the following chapters I have ventured to set down something about the fox and his ways, in the hop that it may prove attractive to the 'young entry' of both sexes, and perhaps encourage them to take a personal interest in the 'old customer' that provides them with so much good sport." Chapters include: The red fox; Fox cubs; Habits of the fox; The hunted fox; Scent of the fox; Fox coverts and artificial fox earths; The fox in captivity; The fox in art and fable; The foxes; Scottish hill foxes. .
