Lea MacNally - Highland Deer Forest and Highland Year are both full of good stuff from a man who spent his life on the hill. Everything from his time at the dens to watching eagles .

Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) I have a big book collection but it's all terrier and lurcher books. I reckon the book has had its day, the internet is slowly taking the romance out of reading a book IMO. Can't beat reading a good book but I think my generation will be the last to say that.

Rabbit Hunter 6,613 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 Is the Badgers book any good Lutra? Can you name a few of your favourites? Quote Link to post
p3d 879 Posted April 24, 2017 Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 A book that tells of the hardship of life and the toughness of the people in the Lake district. Great photo of Joe Wear with some of his terriers and stories about John Peel. Details of fell hounds but more importantly the people who live there. I enjoyed the story of the very young kids in pre-school drawing for a new teacher from the south of England. She thought there was something wrong when she saw they were all colouring the sky as plain grey. Where she came from the kids coloured it blue with a big yellow sun. The head teacher gave her the heads up, not much sunny days up here. 3 Quote Link to post

Lutra Lutra 611 Posted April 24, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Is the Badgers book any good Lutra? Can you name a few of your favourites? Hello Rabbit Hunter, I'm paying my money as Bosun has mentioned it to myself that I'll be able to offer lads various books. Unfortunately I only have the one copy of the book on Badgers available . It's a very good book indeed and the old saying stands true when certain people state you can pick up various books and find them somewhat difficult to put down, because they are so captivating within their readership. There are certain chapters of concern and interest, especially about Badger Setts and life underground, plus bedding collecting, factor affecting digging and bedding collecting,Chapters on the Badger itself and general characteristics. The Badger's home. distribution. Territory. Bovine Tuberculosis and much more. Profusely illustrated throughout.Sorry this one is not for sale.
