About This Item
London: Collins, 1959. Hardcover. Very Good. Used. Very Good/No Jacket. A comparitively rare volume nowadays, in which the author writes about various wild animals to be found in Britain - their habits and lifestyles. Written in a homely, but authorative style, that draws the reader into the lives of these animals, this was probably meant for older children, but there's a lot the adult reader could learn from the author's meticulous observations. Here you will read about the fox; badger; pine martin & polecat; stoat & weasel; the otter; the wildcat; squirrels; red deer; fallow deer; and roe deer; the brown hare; mountain hare; the rabbit; brown rat; the mole; mice, voles & shrews; and finally, the hedgehog. An attractive feature of the book are the many black-and-white and colour illustrations (including four double-page colour) by the artist, Nina Scott Langley. Altogether, a charming volume for nature lovers of whatever age. Contains 96 pages, 27 x 21cm, and illustrated throughout with colour and b&w artwork. Grey cloth boards in very good condition. No dust jacket. Internally, very good: clean, bright and unmarked in excellent bindings.
