    About this ebook

    The Fox's Prophecy is a remarkable narrative poem, thought to have been written by DW Nash around 1870. In this edition, former Daily Telegraph columnist RWF Poole counterbalances the poem's foreboding stanzas with a typically witty and acerbic commentary that highlights its relevance to our own times and to the future.
    In this entertaining edition, R.W.F. Poole throws new light on this sporting gem and reemphasizes its status as a remarkable collection of prophecies that would make even Nostradamus green with envy.
    Diana Brown trained at Tunbridge Wells School of Art and was elected in 1967 as one of the early members of the Society of Wildlife Artists. She has illustrated a number of books and contributes to various magazines. She lives with her husband on a farm in Aberdeenshire.
