Publisher's Synopsis
A collection of anecdotes, reminiscences and delightful vignettes recalled by a cross-section of people whose lives have been indelibly touched by one man - Ronnie Wallace. The name Wallace is a legend in the fox-hunting world; a man who will be remembered as the outstanding figure in the sport during the 20th century. Revered for his innate ability to hunt the fox, handle the hounds and run the hunting country, Ronnie Wallace was equally adept at walking the corridors of power as he was at delivering a very public roasting in the field when he deemed it necessary. A selection of those roastings are recorded here, as are stories of his mastery in the art of breeding hounds and his unique field craft. Amusing and entertaining account of a legendary figure in the countryside community - worldwide!. Ideal gift and bedside reading for every lover of country sports - there are over 50,000 people who hunt with hounds in the UK. Illustrated in full colour 'Thelwell-style' by Gary Drew
