  Foxes, hounds, sheep and whisky feature prominently in this book, but this repertoire of humorous pieces also includes excursions abroad, whether it be hunting wild boar in France or coyotes in America. On one occasion the author finds himself on operations with the Territorial Army and sorely missing his creature comforts; on another he is wryly assessing the progress of the newcomers in the village whose genteel customs are somewhat at variance with those of the Natives. The author writes for the Daily Telegraph and the Shooting Times . He wrote A Backwoodman's Year .
