Dr. Syntax's Three Tours by William Combe
Chatto & Windus, London, 1895. Very good condition. No dj. Black cloth w/gilt rider and horse on front cover, title on spine. Reproduction of 80 colored illus. by T. Rowlandson. Reprint of three humorous long poems written in the early 1800's; does not appear to have anything much hunting related in it, but the comic illustrations often feature equestrian scenes, as Dr. Syntax rides out on his tours. Delightful period piece.
