There were a number of short-lived sporting journals around this time but this one was notable by the inclusion of 19 colored plates by Alken and J. Barenger. Not all of these are of top quality and the publishers of this 1904 reprint while reproducing most with careful fidelity have replaced six of the weaker ones with nine others of superior quality by Alken Dighton and Ben Marshall for a total of 22. Apart from this the contents are as in the original and the resulting volume is not only handsome but of continuing interest to the sportsman and to anyone interested in Regency England.
