4.0 out of 5 stars Another angle on Liberty, 19 Sep 2003
An unusual & provocative review of new and some ancient philosphies wrapped up in an intelligent and highly readable novel. English thought at its liberal best with all sides of arguments well displayed but with a light touch.

1.0 out of 5 stars Sentimental apologetics, 11 Aug 2007
This book is for the few remaining people who seriously consider that the hunting fraternity in this country was and still is the guardian of cherished tradition and rural protocol. "Venator" - the Latin word for "huntsman" - is the author's pen-name, and it says it all. The Shell Book of the Countryside is where to go for a factual and well-illustrated tour of Britain. This volume, however, is purely (albeit coyly) in praise of country sport - blood sport that is. There are few advocates of this kind of bestiality who possess either the intelligence or vocabulary to speak rationally, let alone write a book - which is why one has had (reluctantly) to acknowledge the author's literary talent and awarded it one star. It is basically an wholly distorted view of this "withered" land from the wrong end of a telescope, and is notable only in so far as it proves beyond doubt how traditionalism and irrational emotionalism are inextricably connected.
