Book First Edition
(Hardcover, 1994). 1994 1st edition. Ppxviii,127. Colour paintings of butterflies by Mandy Shepherd, brief bibliography. Fine in dust-wrapper. "It is Clive Simson's distinction that he stands as an exemplar (as did Gilbert White of Selborne in the 18th century) of the past naturalists who elevated the fauna of our pastoral and agrarian island into the status of national treasure." Wilson Stephens, Editor of The Field, in his foreword to this book. Clive Simson recounts reminiscences of a lifetime spent studying butterflies in the field, principally taking his material from his field notes. Species observed and discussed include the Silver-Washed Fritillary, the Purple Emperor, the Swallowtail, the Adonis Blue, the GreenHairstreak, the Peacock, the Brimstone, the Chequered Skipper, and others. .
