This is a tour de force of British Field Sports and country activities - a delightful eye opener for countless city dwellers and an absolute treat for countryfolk everywhere.
The authors pull no punches about the threats - political and ecological - which menace so much of our sporting heritage, but combine their stark warnings with happy and detailed narrative style. With beautifully illustrated chapters on fishing, shooting, hunting, coursing and falconry, amongst others, this book is a must for anyone with an interest in the rich countryside of Britain.
