An account of the author's experiences hunting around the worlds, including the Malay Peninsula, India, America, and the fox-hunting counties of England. Including two in-depth descriptions over two chapters on elk hunting in the Western Cattle lands of Montana. Higginson reports the Duke of Portland's observation: "I knew Pennell Elmhirst very well indeed. He was a first-rate man to hounds, a fine sportsman, and an excellent horseman; but he very often appeared with a scratched and bleeding face. I think he wrote the best hunting articles I have ever read". See less
