Regulation & Imagination:
Legal & Literary Perspectives on Fox-hunting

This is our first try at an odd mode of legal scholarship: the coffee-table treatise. It is handsome enough to merit display (many nice pictures, and maps), and scholarly enough to merit study (many eloquent experts).

The story at the center of the book — Arthur Conan Doyle's The King of the Foxes — is both an exciting tale and a provocative prompt for discussion of law and literature affecting, and affected by, fox-hunting.
