Fox hunting has been one of the most divisive issues among the Britishpopulation in the past few years. On the first glance, the debate seems like anissue of rural versus urban ways of life, of blood sports devotees versusanimal rights activists, of upper class versus working class. In reality, however,there is much more to it.Emotionally charged discussions, from local pubs to the House of Commons,have made many people lose sight of the factual origins and the backgroundof fox hunting. Written before the introduction of the Hunting Act 2004, thisbook provides a broad picture of fox hunting, dealing with its historical,sociocultural, political, economic and environmental implications. Not onlydoes this work offer informative facts and figures, but it also looks at thepolitical attempts to introduce a hunting ban and conveys an impression ofthe heated debate led by pro- and anti-hunting lobby groups.The book is addressed to proponents and opponents of fox hunting alike, topeople who are interested or involved in hunting or who want to be informedabout this controversial issue in a larger context.
