Description

Terriers for Sport by Pierce O'Conor is a rare and valuable work on the subject of terrier hunting. First published in 1922, this book has never been reprinted and only a few copies of the original remain. Read Country Books has now made it available again, using the original text and its vintage terrier photographs. The book is divided into concise chapters covering various aspects of terrier hunting, including team management, digging, hunting, and training. These chapters provide a wealth of information on the subject, including the early recorded writings on otter dogs and their training. The book also includes new material by distinguished dog writer Theo Marples and other notable sportsmen of the day. A unique and fascinating insight into the world of terrier hunting, Terriers for Sport is a must-have for anyone interested in the subject. The book is accompanied by a large number of black and white photographs of terriers and terriermen, which have never been reprinted before.
