Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crag and Hound in Lakeland The portions of this book which relate to rock-climbing are primarily addressed to beginners. The number of climbers increases yearly, and it seemed to me that some kind of Child's Guide would be acceptable to fill in the interval between the chapters on elementary British mountaineering by Mr. Pilkington Badminton Library) and Dr. Claude Wilson Mountaineering: All England Series and the works of Haskett Smith and O. G. Jones. Fellside hunting has, so far as I know, only been treated of hitherto in occasional articles. I have endeavoured to have my statements in regard to this branch of sport thoroughly checked by good men who have followed the hounds for years, and I wish to acknowledge my indebted ness to these, and also to those Masters who have been kind enough to furnish me with particulars about their packs. To George Abraham and his brother Ashley, as guides, protectors, and especially as friends, I cannot adequately express my thanks.
