What reading level is The Fox book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Io. F. Twenty years later, the sum rose to 26/. Per head, and at the present day is 36/. This allows nothing for the expenditure on hunting by the followers of the chase, but is simply the money spent by the Master and members of the Hunt on horses, hounds, food, and wages, before the fox is brought to hand. Thus a hundred pheasants represent 100/. Of expenditure, while fifty foxes mean 1, 150/. Circu- lated in the neighbourhood. Again, if we accept Mr. Sargent's figures given in ' Thoughts on ...Sport, ' the annual cost of hunting in England, Ireland, and Scotland totals up at 4, 250, 000/. In round numbers. Suppose 30, 000 foxes are killed every year, the average cost of each fox is rather over 140/. I have selected these figures because I am convinced that Mr. Sargent rather understates the expenditure than over-estimates it. Thus the outlawry of the fox in countries where he can be hunted is a mistake from a pecuniary point of view. To suppose that the money would find its way by other channels into the same pockets if there was no hunting is an error.
