There is an almost mystical romanticism about the unique Black and Tan hounds of Scarteen. These are the descendants of the old Irish hound hunted by an ancient Irish family, and they and the family have survived together the vicissitudes of Irish history for over 350 years.

The author has complemented his text with an evocative "photographic record", appendices and a map of the Scarteen country.
