    The gentleman's recreation in four parts. Viz. Hunting, hawking, fowling, fishing. Wherein these generous exercises are largely treated of, and the Terms of Art for Hunting and Hawking more amply enlarged than heretofore. Also the Method of Breeding and Managing a Hunting-Horse: Unto which is now annex'd an Appendix of choice Receipts for the Cure of several Maladies. Whereto is added, a perfect abstract of all the forest-laws, and of every particular Act of Parliament since Magna Charta to this time, as do any way relate to the several kinds of Game above-mention'd. To which is prefix'd, a large sculpture, giving easy directions for blowing the horn. And other Sculptures proper to each Recreation.

    Cox, Nicholas, fl. 1673-1731. | Date: 1706
