Thoughts on Hunting: In a Series of Familiar Letters to a Friend Hardcover - 2000
by Peter Beckford
From the rear cover
Fox hunting is a sport filled with custom and tradition. That tradition, in a sense, begins with Thoughts Upon Hunting. It is arguably the single most important book in the history of foxhunting. Peter Beckford's book was the very first effort to codify the practices of the hunt. In doing so, he not only captures the history of the sport, but its adventure and thrill as well. Originally published in England the 18th century, Thoughts Upon Hunting continues to be read by foxhunting enthusiasts here and in Britain as well, making it a truly international classic.
