This vintage book contains a short treatise on fox hunting, being an analysis of the employment of fox hounds with information on management and tips on their care, use, and training. A timeless and useful manual, "A Pack of Foxhounds" will be of considerable utility to fox hunting historians, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Pack", "Cubhunting", "The Season. Drawing a Covert", "The Horn", "In the Open. Casting Hounds", and "the Beaten Fox". Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on the foxhound.

Internationally renowned Master and huntsman Hugh J. Robards, MFH engagingly informs foxhunters, new or experienced, how to more fully absorb the drama of the hunt. What is the huntsman doing? Why does he do that? What about the whippers-in? The Field Master? The hounds? The fox? What problems do each encounter in the field during the course of a typical hunt? What decisions must they make? It may be a revelation to some, especially those who hunt to ride, but even while standing still, things are happening if you know what to look for and how to interpret what you see. By learning what to watch and listen for, field members can increase their awareness and thus their enjoyment of every hunting day.

Around a campfire in the woods through long hours of night, men used to gather to listen to the music of hounds’ voices as they chased an elusive and seemingly preternatural fox. To the highly trained ears of these backwoods hunters, the hounds told the story of the pursuit like operatic voices chanting a great epic. Although the hunt almost always ended in the escape of the fox—as the hunters hoped it would—the thrill of the chase made the men feel “that they [were] close to something lost and never to be found, just as one can feel something in a great poem or a dream.” Gray Ghosts and Red Rangers offers a colorful account of this vanishing American folkway—back-country fox hunting known as “hilltopping,” “moonlighting,” “fox racing,” or “one-gallus fox hunting.” Practiced neither for blood sport nor to put food on the table, hilltopping was worlds removed from elite fox hunting where red- and black-coated horsemen thundered across green fields in daylight. Hilltopping was a nocturnal, even mystical pursuit, uniting men across social and racial lines as they gathered to listen to dogs chasing foxes over miles of ground until the sun rose. Engaged in by thousands of rural and small-town Americans from the 1860s to the 1980s, hilltopping encouraged a quasi-spiritual identification of man with animal that bound its devotees into a “brotherhood of blood and cause” and made them seem almost crazy to outsiders.
