Riassunto

Henry Williamson was one of the great nature writers of the century. His area of observation was North Devon--its coast and moors, its inhabitants in all their forms. He regarded animals and men with compassion and wrote about them in clear, memorable prose. These 12 stories range from the eerie "A Winter's Tale," about a stranded hiker's night in a fog-shrouded farmhouse; to the satiric observation of "The White Stoat," an albino weasel's encounter with a Cockney interloper; and from "The Crake," a Melvillean saga of a fisherman's duel with the sea; to "The Yellow Boots," a chilling tale of a bizarre convict hunt on the moors.
