Second edition, one of 500. vii, 302; viii, 303 pp. 1 vols. 8vo. Hudson states "when the 2nd Edition, also of 500 copies, appeared, the name 'Geilles Herring' was, without reference to E.Å’.S., changed to the more eloquent soubriquet of 'Viva Graham,' 'Grilled Herring' having - not without justification - been assumed to name of one of the authors" (Hudson, p.3).

Here on the title page the name has not been changed but the indication Second Edition is present. Hudson pp. 1-3; Sadlier 3123 (for first ed.); Biscotti, Six Centuries of Foxhunting, p. 340
