Excerpt from Fox Hunting: A Treatise by the Right Hon. The Earl of KilreynardTo this end I have devoted the best of my days, and, with an apology to Mr. Punch's College of Arms, I leave it to the kind reader to say whether or not the result is eminently satisfactory.The life-like portraits with which the treatise is embellished have not met with the unqualified approval of the celebrities they so strikingly represent. The danger and difficulty that an artist has to contend against in illustrating historical works of this kind can only be appreciated by those who try it.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
