Reviews[Fine's] writings fairly capture the reader and take him headlong o'er the fences and the hedges of hunts from North America to the old sod of Ireland and England., The reader is entranced from the very first page of the first chapter....Norman Fine describes bold English settlers toddling into the New World....

SynopsisA collection of thirty-two foxhunting stories populated by horses, hounds, challenging obstacles, and unforgettable personalities. Accompany Norman Fine to Ireland, England, Canada, and across the United States as he meets, hunts with, and is educated by the foremost Masters, huntsmen, hound breeders, and sporting historians of the last fifty years. Fine's stories, most of them previously published in the U.S. and England, are connected chronologically by new material in which the author explains how he came to meet these larger-than-life characters, what role they played in his development from horseman to foxhunter, and how he came to hunt with their hounds.
