Stuart Menzies Livres

Meet the charismatic and accomplished Lord William Beresford, one of the most celebrated figures of Victorian England. Menzies draws on personal recollections and contemporary sources to create a vivid portrait of this colorful character, from his exploits on the cricket field and the battlefield to his wit and humor in social circles.

This engrossing volume chronicles the adventures of a group of British clergymen who pursued their passion for hunting, shooting, and fishing in the years following World War I. Drawing on diaries, letters, and other primary sources, the author provides a vivid portrayal of their exploits and escapades in both the English countryside and far-flung corners of the world.
