Descrição do livro

The Game Laws by George Shaw-Lefevre, 1st Baron Eversley. This work provides a comprehensive historical and legal analysis of England's Game Laws, tracing their feudal origins to modern reform. It surveys the Crown's prerogative over wild game in the Norman and Saxon periods, the impact of the Magna Carta de Foresta and subsequent statutes, and the long evolution of rights to hunt across land ownership. The text compares English practice with France and Germany, and details key statutes such as the 1831 reform that abolished privilege and tied sporting rights to the land, as well as later measures addressing close seasons and poaching. It discusses the legal status of game, pigeons, swans, and deer, and examines the social and economic consequences of preservation, including poaching and damage to crops. The author ends with proposed remedies aimed at annexing game to land and reforming landlord-tenant relations to reduce over-preservation and its harms.
