THE FOXHUNTER'S YEAR BOOK 1930-1.
A useful and interesting directory of hunt clubs and fixtures. Full details of all British and Irish hunts, including tables of principal meets of each and a full-page but photographically reduced Ordnance Survey map of each hunt's country. Listings of hunts in the colonies, America, Germany and other countries. Includes full-page colour portraits of numerous MFHs and lots of adverts for sporting tailors, boot-makers, dog-related paraphernalia, and in greatest profusion, port and spirits. Full page advert in colour for Lalique Galleries ("The Artist and The Hunting Man"), Sloane Street, p102, and a full-page b/w advert, p33, for the De Havilland Puss Moth, "built to make flying as comfortable as motoring." The Foxhunter's Yearbook was what Baily's would have been, had they had the money.
