About the book

Siegfried Sassoon's Memoirs of a Fox-Hunting Man follows the fictionalised George Sherston from an idyllic rural childhood into young adulthood before the First World War. His life revolves around cricket, horses, hunting and the English countryside, creating a nostalgic portrait of a world soon to be transformed by war. The book combines autobiography, humour and social observation in Sassoon's celebrated sequence of Sherston memoirs.
