This is a story of the restoration of a Devonshire farm to its ?natural" state and excursions into the surrounding countryside detailing the wild life to be found there. Some of the full page illustrations, The Plough, The Dragonfly and the Fox for example, are among the Tunnicliffe?s best work. Most appear to be woodcuts or possibly scratchboard or lino cuts.
