The Language of the Field is an extensive, witty and authoritative dictionary. It provides etymology, definition and examples of words associated with the fauna (chased and chasers), the country lore and the implements of Field Sports -- words which enhance our everyday language even though it has lost its memory of their source, or which cast light on the long history of the first art of survival: hunting.
