About this book
In the early 20th century, as traditional hunting practices faced scrutiny and change, "The A B C of Drag Hunting" by Grace Clarke Newton emerged as a charming guide to this innovative sport. This illustrated work introduces readers to the unique terminology and concepts of drag hunting, where hounds follow a scent trail laid by a human rather than pursuing live prey. With entries that illuminate the art of scenting and the camaraderie of the hunt, this book is an essential resource for students, civic activists, and historians interested in the evolution of hunting practices. Discover the playful yet informative exploration of a sport that redefined the relationship between humans and nature, making it a delightful addition to any outdoor enthusiast's library.
