It was a major contributor to the island's economy in the 19th century and continued to have regional impact in the 20th century. Attacked by environmentalists and animal-welfare groups, today's hunt bears few traces of its former importance. Its fate tells us much about modern society's ambivalent attitude to the natural world..... (*shipping will be reduced to most locations) ; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall, Very Good
