Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Powell, Dan (illustrator). An outstanding book Spectator The story of the short life and tragic death of Bowland Beth an English Hen Harrier which dramatically highlights the major issues in UK conservation. The sun was blood red as it broke the horizon and lit the communal roost where the female hen harrier had spent the night. She watched the other harriers as they left to go foraging for food out on the moor. She didnt join them, for she had felt a quickening in her body, an urge to move to Mallowdale Pike, a rocky crag from where she had fledged nine months ago. After preening, she lifted off from the roost and soared up over the fell. David Cobham enters Beths world to show what being a hen harrier today is like. He immerses himself not only in the day-to-day regimen of her life, the hours of hunting, bathing, keeping her plumage in order and roosting, but also the fear of living in an environment run to provide packs of driven grouse for a few wealthy sportsmen to shoot. The hen harrier is seen as a totemic species in the battle between the conservationists and ruralists, and as one of the key players in this emotive debate, David Cobham is uniquely placed to reflect on Beths story. In this powerful narrative, he provides us with a profound tale which helps to illuminate the larger implications of the species decline, highlighting the urgent need for conservation efforts to reverse this. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

B/w illustrations by Dan Powell. Black hen harrier motif to grey boards, upper board and spine titled in black and pink. Issued without a dust-wrapper. Insect damage to boards, slight tanning to edges. Good working copy. Illustrated by Dan Powell. "I am often told that my film of Tarka [the Otter, by Henry Williamson] played an important role in getting otter hunting banned in England and Wales in 1980. Can this dramatised version of Beth's life awaken similar emotions in people' hearts and compel them to stand up and explore in the strongest terms the illegal persecution of the few remaining breeding hen harriers in England? I hope so." Film-maker and naturalist, David Cobham has taken the life of a real hen harrier, tracked by satellite and studied hour by hour, and used this as the basis for this dramatised biography. The hen harrier in question, christened Beth, hatched on the moors of the Forest of Bowland, and wherever else she might have travelled, always returned home to the Bowland Fells. .
