IN HIS LIBRARY 269 



for his country in South Africa. His contributions to 

 The Field and to Baily's Magazine are famiHar to all 

 hunting-men. His best volume work is : 



" The Cream of Leicestershire," " Eleven Seasons' 

 Skimmings," " Notable Runs and Incidents of the 

 Chase." By " Brooksby " (Edward Pennell-Elmhirst). 

 1893. 8vo. Pp. xvi + 435, with coloured and other 

 illustrations by Sturgess. Portraits and a map. 



" Foxhound, Forest, and Prairie." By " Brooksby " 

 (Edward Pennell-Elmhirst). 1892. Royal 8vo. Coloured 

 plates and woodcuts by Sturgess and Marsham. 



I should add, however, that the reproduction of his 

 articles in The Field, anent the hunting countries of 

 England, is one of the most useful books of reference 

 that I have had the pleasure of referring to. 



"The Horse in the Stable and the Field." By 

 "Stonehenge" (J. H. Walsh). 1861. 8vo. Illustra- 

 tions. 



There are many editions of this well-known work ; 

 a thirteenth appeared in 1890. 8vo. Pp. x + 622. 



The author of the above work is too well known to 

 require comment. 



Few men have done more for fox-hunting literature 

 than Mr. Cornelius Tongue, better known as " Cecil.'' 

 The Stud Farm is still an authority on the breeding of 

 hunters, and should be read by every breeder.
