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.
