Exploring sites such as Creswell Crags, Chatsworth House, Stafford Castle, Cheddar Gorge and the New Forest, "Hunting in Britain" examines the role of hunting through time and considers how it shaped the landscape as we know it. Lewis considers hunting techniques, including the use of animals and the evolution of weaponry for hunting, as well as hunting as a mark of status, examining the symbolism of hunting from Roman times to the present. 224p b/w illus col pls (The History Press 2009)
