Henry Hugh Arthur FitzRoy Somerset, 10th Duke of Beaufort (4 April 1900 – 5 February 1984), KG, GCVO, GCC, PC , of Badminton House in Gloucestershire, styled Marquess of Worcester until 1924, was a peer, landowner, society figure and a great authority in the fields of horse racing and fox-hunting.
As a relative and very close friend of the Royal Family, he held the office of Master of the Horse for 42 years (1936-1978), longer than anybody else.
He founded the Badminton Horse Trials and was deemed "the greatest fox-hunter of the twentieth century"; his long tenure as Master of the Beaufort Hunt led to his being universally nicknamed Master and his car bore the private numberplate MFH1.
In 1980 he published the authoritative book "Fox-Hunting".
