Items related to A Short History of the Wolf in Britain
Synopsis
Originally published in 1880. The wolf in the British Isles became extinct around 1760. Until that time wolves were to be found in almost every county in England and Wales, while in Scotland and Ireland they were even more numerous. This illustrated book is a detailed history of the early evolution of the wolf in Britain and how it was eventually hunted and trapped to extinction. It also includes early notes on the Wolfhound or Wolf-Dog. Many of the earliest natural history books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Home Farm Books are republishing many of these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This volume contains James Edmund Harting¿s 1841 work; ¿A Short History of the Wolf in Britain¿. With information on natural history, habits, habitat, and decline, this fascinating volume will appeal to those with an interest in the wild animals of Britain¿s history. It would make for a great addition to collections of related literature. James Edmund Fotheringham Harting (1841 - 1928) was an English ornithologist and naturalist, responsible for editing 'The Zoologist' magazine, and a renowned expert on Falconry. Many vintage texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
