A Girl's Life In A Hunting Country is a memoir written by Emily Handasyde Buchanan in 1903. The book provides a vivid and detailed account of her life growing up in the English countryside, where fox hunting was a popular pastime. Buchanan's memoir offers a unique perspective on the hunting culture of the time, as she was not only a participant but also an observer of the sport. She describes the thrill of the hunt and the excitement of the riders, as well as the cruelty and danger that often accompanied it. The book also delves into Buchanan's personal life, including her relationships with her family and friends, her education, and her experiences as a young woman in a male-dominated society. Throughout the memoir, Buchanan's love for the natural world shines through, as she describes the beauty of the English countryside and the animals that inhabit it. Overall, A Girl's Life In A Hunting Country is a fascinating and insightful look into a bygone era, and a must-read for anyone interested in the history of hunting, English culture, or memoirs of women's lives in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
