Lightly tanned but a very good copy in slightly used & frayed dust-wrapper. #237 of 600 signed & numbered copies. "Wherever hunting with hounds goes on in the world at the moment, it has always been either copied, adapted or borrowed from the French or English system: the same may be said of the hounds used. All hounds hunting in any country now are of either French or English origin, or a mixture of both. I propose to describe the hounds of France first, as it was from there that our hounds came; then those of England, and lastly the strains evolved in America from a mixture of the two foregoing. To go thoroughly into the origin and history of the various breeds of hounds, it will be necessary to describe a number of types, some of them practically extinct now, but to which many of the traits to be found in our modern hounds may be traced. The conclusion that I have reached have not been jumped to in any rash or partisan spirit, but have been arrived at after carefully weighing a great deal of often conflicting evidence, and a great number of different opinions which I shall quote." .

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. This is a unique first edition of this classic. As stated on a bookplate inside the front cover, this volume was owned by the Duke of Westminster and was signed 'Westminster' on the front cover. At the outset, the author writes: "Wherever hunting with hounds goes on in the world at the moment, it has always been either copied, adapted or borrowed from the French or English system: the same may be said of the hounds used. All hounds hunting in any country now are of either French or English origin, or a mixture of both. I propose to describe the hounds of France first, as it was from there that our hounds cam; then those of England, and lastly the strains evolved in America from a mixture of the two foregoing. To go thoroughly into the origin and history of the various breeds of hounds, it will be necessary to describe a number of types, some of them practically extinct now, but to which many of the traits to be found in our modern hounds may be traced. The conclusion that I have reached have not been jumped to in any rash or partisan spirit, but have been arrived at after carefully weighing a great deal of often conflicting evidence, and a great number of different opinions which I shall quote. This volume is tight and square. There is some foxing inside the covers and on some pages.The boards are slightly soiled. There is a small dark stain on the front cover. There are many illustraions, photos and 20 beautiful colour plates. VERY RARE. Signed by Author(s).
