https://images.autods.com/autodsV2Images/62859-0002dc8c-86b6-47ba-a456-71334c6ebfcf-62c54f4f7b91b602877d2a07.pngH. A. Bryden, a veteran hunter of hares in England, discusses the history and evolution of hunting with dogs – his chronicle being accompanied by photographs and charts.
Writing shortly after the turn of the 20th century, Bryden provides an insightful examination of hare hunting, noting how it had originally been in vogue during the 18th century. After a period where fox hunting took precedence, use of hounds to hunt hares experienced a resurgence in popularity, with the landed gentry up and down England and also in Ireland returning to the practice.
Many practical elements of training dogs are mentioned: the breeds suitable, the food which promotes their vigor and stamina, the maintenance of their kennels, and the orientation of the hounds with the terrain. As hunts take place with large groups of dogs, it is crucial that the hunters gain aptitude in managing them even whilst on horseback. The later chapters of this book discuss various successful hunts, noting the special attention that the hunting party pays during and after the pursuit of the hares.
The appendices offer further wisdom and lore from the hunting community of the time; poetry and a lengthy list of good hound names.
