TRACKS AND 

 TRACKING . . 



By H. MORTIMER BATTEN. 



ILLUSTRATED. 



A Book for Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, and every 

 lover of Woodcraft. 



From the Morning Post. 



" This is a delightful little book by a true expert. Mr Batten does 

 not boast of his ability as an intimate of Dame Nature, but now and 

 again he relates an experience which shows he is 'far ben' in the 

 loving-kindness of that Lady of the greater and lesser wildernesses. 



" There is not, of course, a trace of the ' Nature faker ' in Mr Batten, 

 who does not impute human motives to wild animals, but deduces their 

 characters from what he has seen of their doings and by the extra- 

 ordinary wealth of circumstantial evidence which he has collected and 

 here collated into less than a hundred pages. Diagrams of the tracks 

 of all British wild creatures are given, and every careful student of 

 his little book will leam to read the palimpsests of the fields, whether 

 in snow-time or at more genial seasons, with absolute certainty."
