"The Eton College Hunt: A Short History of Beagling at Eton" by A. C. Crossley is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book delves into the tradition of beagling at Eton College, focusing particularly on the development and evolution of the Eton College Hunt over the decades. It highlights significant contributors, the challenges faced, and the overall culture surrounding the sport at Eton. The opening of the work introduces Edward Charrington, who was instrumental in establishing the Oppidan Beagles in 1858. Through extracts from Charrington’s diary, the text recounts the early days of hunting with beagles, including the struggles of keeping the hounds within the confines of Eton's strict rules and the camaraderie among the boys who participated. It also touches upon the gradual acceptance of beagling as an integral part of life at Eton, capturing the spirit of adventure and the challenges boys faced in the pursuit of this sport. The reader gets a glimpse into a vibrant, historical narrative of school life intertwined with the age-old tradition of hunting, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the hunt's legacy.
