The Times.--" So graphic is Mr. Rees' 

 writing, the reader himself feels one of the 

 company, crouching in the brushwood in 

 the moonlit wood, as a crackle of twigs or 

 a glint of light makes the stealthy motion 

 of otter, fox, vole, hare, or badger , . . these 

 pictures of them, in conditions so seldom 

 described, form engrossing reading for all 

 who love the wilder aspects of nature." 



Daily Telegraph. " No one with a love of 

 wild creatures can resist the charm of such 

 a work, every page of which shows know- 

 ledge, insight, and sympathy ... a fascinating 

 work." 



JOHN MURRAY, Albemarle Street, LONDON, W.I.
