'Fowler's Moon'- a delightful and nostalgic book on wildfowling written (and smuggled out) by Nigel Thornycroft while in a P.O.W. camp, using an illegal pencil and scraps of toilet paper. 'Fowlers Moon' was originally published in 1955 and established Nigel as an icon of English coastal wildfowlers. It has never been reprinted and is now highly collectable. 'Nigel & Corona - a Story of Adventure, Sport, Wilderness & War from England to Africa' - A family biography, recording the lives of Nigel and Corona Thornycroft, both of whom were born into privileged English back grounds but gave this up to pioneer a tobacco and game farm under eccentricconditions in Africa. The book was initially put together by Corona, from Nigel's letters and war diaries, her own unpublished memoirs, her sister Rose's diary and memories and contributions of family and friends. Family members, Verity Thornycroft (in South Africa) and David Thornycroft (in Wales) edited and privately published this in a very limited edition, for members of the family. It includes 70 wildlife sketches from Corona's game book and 60 black and white photographs. The books make a handsome limited edition set, the two leather-backed volumes presented together in a cloth slip-case. Either book may be bought individually for GBP 60.00 or in a less expensive paperbound edition for GBP 19.95 or GBP 36.00 for the pair. .
