Fifty years ago Gavin Maxwell (1914-69), a Scottish naturalist, traveller and author, went to live in an abandoned house on a shingle beach on the west coast of Scotland. A haven for wildlife, he named his home Camusfearna and settled there with the otters Mij, Edal and Teko. 'Ring of Bright Water' chronicles Gavin Maxwell's first ten years with the otters and touched the hearts of readers the world over, brilliantly evoking life with these playful animals in this natural paradise. Two further volumes followed bringing the story full circle telling of the difficult last years and the final abandonment of the settlement. Gavin Maxwell is widely credited with saving the otter as a species in the UK and their subsequent conservation and protection. Scarce in these first impressions. Three heavy hardbacks, extra postage will be required. Illustrations by the author, Peter Scott, Michael Ayrton, Robin McEwen, James Millar Watt et al (illustratore).
