ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2008). (2000) 2008 reprint. 8vo (165 x 232mm). Ppviii,176. Colour photographs, colour and b/w illustrations by Bruce Pearson, brief bibliography. Green boards, spine titled in gilt. Fine unread copy in dust-wrapper. "In The Otter Among Us, a record of a lifetime's study and observation, James Williams answers many questions. Why, for example, such an attractive creature has given rise to many misunderstandings about its habits; how these very specialised animals operate in the rivers of lowland Britain; how the lifestyle they have adapted to cope with changing habitats also ensures they remain rare - and mysterious. The Otter Among Us will add greatly to the knowledge of those who delight in otters just as it will encourage those who wish they could claim to have sighted one. James Williams' words of wisdom and Bruce Pearson's evocative illustrations will persuade readers that there is every reason to look for and appreciate the otter among us." Chapters include: A glimpse of an otter; What was it you saw?; The otter at night; Signs of the otter; Lifestyle of a specialist; Family life; Following the otter; Food and predation; Decline and anxieties; Conservation and present situation; The otter in today's world. Appendices on mink and otter watching. .

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.
