A decade and one dog after penning Racing Pigs And Giant Marrows, and inspired by the purchase of his new hound, a petit basset-griffon Vendeen called Little Man, Harry Pearson returns to the world of stalking, ferreting, and beating with this ramble through the countryside. Harry Pearson was born into a dog-loving family and grew up with a variety of spaniels, terriers, collies, and mongrels. He currently spends several hours every day running along behind a bassett-griffon pretending he really intended to go that way himself. Within these pages are anecdotes culled from 45 years of living with dogs, wise observations on canine and human behavior, historical tales of famous dogs, learned speculations on nature, and descriptions of life in the real English countryside—a place where there are otters in the river, glue-sniffers in the woods, and fisticuffs over fishing rights.
