A cornerstone of American sporting literature, The Story of American Foxhunting stands among the most sought-after publications issued by the esteemed Derrydale Press—long regarded as the preeminent publisher of sporting books in the United States.
Written by J. Blan Van Urk, Master of Foxhounds of the Essex Fox Hounds, this work offers a richly detailed account of foxhunting in America, tracing its development from colonial beginnings through its establishment as a defining tradition of American sporting life. Both historical and cultural in scope, the book reflects a world shaped by land, lineage, and ritual—closely tied to the traditions of the East Coast sporting class.
