Originally published in the 1900s, this is a delightful collection of quirky, yet learned, articles on anmals and nature, that were written for the pages of Country Life, The Times and The New Statesman amongst others. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
