Memories of the Shires (Classic Reprint) by J. Otho Paget PDF Summary

Book Description: Excerpt from Memories of the Shires The war has created a gap in the history of time - events will be dated before or after. During the winter of 1914 a huge fissure was started in the affairs of fox-hunting which has gradually grown in width. Old customs, traditions and methods that were considered essential to the sport have been swept into the dustbin. Pessimists with gloomy faces will tell you that hunting is at an end, and that the fox will soon be extinct; but I am firmly convinced that the sport will rise triumphant from the ashes of the past, and with a brighter future will become established on a broader basis. Although many good sportsmen have been killed, there are still plenty left, and many more growing up. This appears to me to be the ideal moment to redeem my long-delayed promise to the publishers and to chat over the past - the five and thirty years preceding the war. I think the love of hunting is inherent with most of us in a greater or less degree, but the degrees have a very wide range, and there are some in whom it is almost imperceptible.
