Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. C. F. Tunnicliffe, R.A. (illustrator). Reprint. Pages have tanned, light wear. 4 X 7" 365 pages, from 1980. Ronald Lockley acquired the neglected Orielton Estate in Wales by chance. Along with the parks, woodlands, lakes and birds, badgers, rabbits, hares, stoats, bats, ants and other living things who were all firmly - an sometimes noisily - ensconced within its boundaries. In this account of the full and crowded years he spent endeavoring to restore Orlielton to its former glory, he describes unforgettably - and with his unsurpassed gift for observation - the remarkable and often unconventional human beings who helped him as well as the habits and lives of some of those animals - including the cherished and enchanting TR (That Rabbit), with whom he fell in love. A marvelous book in the best tradition of English natural history writing from the very first page. Seller Inventory # 24629
