Way of the Wild

Wild animals watched at close quarters and written without a word of speech put in their mouths - the stoat, the heron, the vixen, each in its own hunger. St Mars wrote for the English magazines in the years when the realistic animal story was at its height. This edition carries 60 plates of painting bound with the text, among them works by Rosa Bonheur, Edwin Landseer and John Constable, alongside 11 illustrations restored and coloured for this printing.
