Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Master of Hounds: Illustrated From Photographs This, the third volume of The Hunting Library, deals with a subject at once more simple and more complex than that covered by its predecessors; more simple because its scope is determined by a review of the personality, the duties and the difficulties of a single official more complex because, if we are to contemplate any approach to a proper estimate of all that the Master of Hounds means in the social and sporting world, it is necessary to consider hls privileges and obli gations not merely from his own standpoint, but also from those of his followers, farmers or otherwise, and his servants. To a complete under standing of his merits, indeed, a word from the hounds would be essential, but short of that it is hoped that something has been accomplished in the following pages to show the Master as he sees himself and also as others see him.

Book excerpt: The Ernst family and their coonhounds have always been connected to the woodlands of Painted Post. College student Jacob "Matthew" Ernst has a unique talent-he can see through the eyes of his hounds. Dogs obey him. For now, though, he needs a break from his studies. Time for Matthew and his faithful coonhound Monk to take a peaceful summer hike in the beautiful hills of their hometown. Logan Willoughby wants to belong. She's fallen in with the Green Skulls-a gang with a long list of criminal exploits-and the price of admission may be too steep for her to pay. Logan accidentally learns too much and leaving the Skulls may no longer be an option. A chance meeting puts Logan on a collision course with Matthew and Monk. Together, Matthew, Logan, and Monk will explore the wisdom only the magic of the forests of Painted Post can impart. The Green Skulls see Logan as a loose end, and the gang's notorious leadership will do whatever it takes to protect their interests. The only thing standing between them and Logan is The Master of Hounds.
