British and American Sporting Authors.

Higginson was a founder and first president of the Masters of Foxhounds Association of America in 1907. He offers short biographical sketches of sporting authors, starting with the fourteenth century Edward, Second Duke of York and Tuberville and Markham of the sixteenth century. He concludes almost 400 pages later with biographies of his early twentieth century contemporaries such as J. Blan van Urk, M. O'Malley Knott, and Captain V.S. Littauer. The second part of the book, compiled by Sydney R. Smith, is the most complete bibliography of foxhunting books published to that time.
