ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2006). 2006 1st edition. 8vo (155 x 235mm). Pp175. B/w photographs, b/w vignette illustrations by Denys Watkins-Pitchford. Brown cloth, spine titled in gilt. Near fine in dust-wrapper. #38 of an edition limited to 380 numbered copies. This book of letters written by "BB" to his friend Gordon Wright focuses on their shared interests - fishing, painting and literature; rearing bullfinches and views on the countryside and wildlife in general. The pair were close friends for 25 years and the five years 1965-70 were marked by a prolific exchange of letters. The correspondence provides a unique insight into the day-to-day lifestyle of one of Britain's finest wildlife and countryside writers. These are fly-on-the-wall accounts of the everyday that chronicle the joy of good fellowship and pleasure of shared experiences. A devout naturalist who cared deeply for the well-being of wildlife in all its many guises, "BB" has become a cult figure and his books and illustrations are coveted by readers worldwide. Edited and published by Bryan Holden, the secretary of the "BB" Society. .
