Illustrations on glossy leaves, text is on untrimmed heavy cardstock leaves. No Jacket. An introduction by Lord Willoughby De Broke. The work that is now placed in our hands is but little known to the present generation, though a modern Master of Fox-hounds would do well to follow every word of advice it contains. The author himself was M.F.H. and carried the horn at the beginning of the last century. A study of his remarkably sound treatise on Foxhunting leaves us with the reflection that the essentials of the sport have changed but slightly since the Battle of Waterloo. He speaks of the excessive preservation of game, of the difficulties of earthstopping, of the jealousy of the riders, in a tone which makes it difficult to believe that a hundred years have glided by since he gained his experience, while his advice on the management of hounds and country at once proclaim him master of a system approved by all recent authorities.…

Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good/fine. First Edition. The first shell that fell on the elegant town of Lipik wrecked the roof of the town's orphanage. Within three months Lipik had been destroyed, the people killed or driven from their homes, and the orphans evacuated under fire to another part of Croatia. The author, sent out to command the British contingent of the UN Protection Force in Croatia, had no idea of ther emotional impact the scenes of devastation would have on him. Nor did he anticipate meeting and falling in love with the beautiful, troubled young doctor of Lipik, Marina Topic. When Marina was rushed into hospital and told she could die within months, her one wish was to see the ruined orphanage rebuilt ot its former glory. Colonel Cook made a promise to her and the children to rebuild their home. Sixteen months after making his promise, Colonel Cook watched the children return to a building which had become a symbol of hope. He resigned from the army in order to keep his promise and found himself agonizingly torn between his life in Croatia, and his understanding and loving wife and their sons in Britain. This book is a story of determination and achievement amidst despair and destruction. Illustrated. 238 pp. Slight crease to bottom edge of front of D/J.…
