This book contains a complete and detailed handbook on traditional
horseback hunting, written by the master of sports writing, John
"Stonehenge" Walsh. A comprehensive and detailed guide to hunting from
horseback, this wonderful book would make the perfect addition to
collections of antiquarian hunting literature. It constitutes a
must-have for fans and collectors of Stonehenge's work. London-born John
Henry Walsh (1810 - 1888) was a prolific English writer of sports-news
who often went by the pseudonym "Stonehenge". His notable works include
The Modern Sportsman's Gun and Rifle (1882), The Horse in the Stable and
in the Field (1861), and The Shot-Gun and Sporting Rifle (1859). Many
vintage texts such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive, and it
is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an
affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a
specially commissioned new biography of the author.
