From England to Virginia, A 17th Century English Perspective on Hunting

Let’s join Brian as he explores the English perspective towards hunting as it transitions from England to Virginia, in the early-17th century. To learn much more about English hunting traditions we recommend the book, Hunters and Poachers, A Social and Cultural History of Unlawful Hunting in England, 1485-1640. By Roger Manning. Oxford University Press, 1993. For a primary source check out the 1591 booklet “A Short Treatise of Hunting” by Sir Thomas Cockaine --
