By RICHARD KEARTON, F.Z.S.,

Illustrated by a Special Frontispiece, and about 150 Pictures from Photographs taken 
direct from Nature, by CHERRY KEARTON. 
MEDIUM 8vo, CLOTH, GILT TOP, 384 PAGES, 21s. 
This book is characterised by crginality, photographic realism, absolute popularity, and anecdotal humour. 
It consists of the personal observations, experiences, and adventures of the .Author and Illustrator during their 
wanderings throughout the British Isles in search of photographs of wild creatures in their native haunts. It 
is illustrated by the finest series of Natural History Pictures, photographed direct from Nature ever brought 
together. They show Birds' Nests, Eggs ani Young, Birds sitting on their Nests, in the act of Feeding 
their Offspring, in Full Flight, Wailing for their Prey, at Rest on Rocks and Trees, Sitting on their Natural 
Roosts at Night (photographed by flash-light), Wild Animals at Home, Reptiles Asleep in the Grass, Wild- 
fowlers Catching Birds on Sea Cliffs, Poachers in the very Act of 1 aking Game, and a great number of sub- 
jects exceedingly rare and difficult to obtain. In procuring their unique series ol pictures, these enterprising 
naturalists have slept for nights together in empty houses, and old ruins, descended beetling cliffs, swum to 
isolated rocks, wad^ rivers, climbed trees, lain in wet heather for hours together, spent nights in the open 
air on lonely islands, and even, in some cases waited patiently a whole week lor a single picture. They show 
exactly how they work, and the pictures of the illustrator coolly walking backwards over a dizzy precipice on 
the end of a rope to photograph the eyries of such inaccessible breeders as eagles and falcons, and manipulat- 
ing his camera while poised on a ladder lashed perpendicularly to the top-most branches of a tall tree, are 
thrilling evidences of determination, pluck and enterprise.
