This vintage book contains a fascinating treatise on the use of Bloodhounds as tracking animals in the police force. It provides a wealth of information on the breed in general, as well as hints, tips, and instructions as to the proper use of bloodhounds in man-hunting. This volume will appeal to those with an interest in Bloodhounds, as well as in tracking and hunting in general. Contents include: "Origin of the Breed", Count Le Couteulz de Canteleu's Appreciation of the Blood Hound", "Celebration of St. Hubert's Day in France", "The Especial Characteristics of the Bloodhound-A Particularly Fine Nose and Freedom from Change", "The Bloodhound in Border Warfare", "Scarcity of the Breed in the Nineteenth Century", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
