Summary |
John Henry Walsh was an English sports writer born in London who wrote under the pseudonym "Stonehenge." Walsh was educated in private schools and became a fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in 1844. He worked as a surgeon for several years, but gradually changed his profession after his written works on rural sports became successful. In 1856, his Manual of British Rural Sports was published, along with many additions. During the same year, he joined the staff of The Field, and became its editor at the close of 1857. Among his numerous books published under the name of "Stonehenge" are: The Shot-Gun and Sporting Rifle (1859) The Dog in Health and Disease (1859; 4th ed. 1887) The Horse in the Stable and in the Field (1861; 13th ed. 1890) Dogs of the British Isles (1867; 3rd ed. 1885) The Modern Sportsman's Gun and Rifle (1882–1884) |
