| Summary | "The A B C of Drag Hunting" by Grace Clarke Newton is a whimsical illustrated guide written in the early 20th century. This book presents an alphabet of terms and concepts related to drag hunting, a form of hunting in which hounds track a scent left by a human runner rather than live game. Through clever rhymes and light-hearted illustrations, it captures the spirit and eccentricities of the hunting community. The book employs each letter of the alphabet to explore various aspects of drag hunting, from the excitement of the chase to the comical mishaps that can occur along the way. Each entry features a term, often paired with entertaining anecdotes and engaging illustrations that depict characters and scenarios typical of hunting culture. Readers will encounter everything from the perils of riding and the camaraderie among hunters to the light-hearted commentary on their adventures. Through its playful tone and insightful references, the book serves as both an affectionate tribute to the sport of drag hunting and a charming read for enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
