For rural communities all over the British Isles, foxhunting was far more than just a seasonal pastime.  It has been part of the fabric of country life for centuries.

This unique book provides an evocative portrait of this ancient tradition, from season to season, from hound shows to livery yards, from the Yorkshire moors to the Cotswolds, from meets in pub car parks to the driveways of castles.  But from the grandest through to the smallest, all hunts are united in their passionate commitment to the countryside, the horses and the hounds.  And Horse & Hound’s leading equestrian photographer Trevor Meeks beautifully captures that spirit in his stunning photographs, providing a remarkable chronicle of a much misunderstood country pursuit, and a memento for those impassioned supporters whose communities have been torn apart by the ban.
