توضیحات
PRE ISBN
8 plates in colour
27 b/w illustrations.
R.M. Lockley, author and farmer, has written mostly of islands and birds and among his best known books are Island Days, I Know an Island and Shearwaters.
In this book Mr Lockley has written of the islands lying off the coast of the British Isles. Many of these he knows from first-hand experience: he knows them as a serious ornithologist who has studied the seabirds and the spring and autumn migrations from many of the island Bird Stations, he has looked at them with the practical eye of a working farmer and he has sailed among them for pleasure.
Islands, for most of us, have a fascination which never fades and the wonderful variety in the character and history, the legends and , above all, the beauty of our islands is most admirably described in this book. As Mr Lockley himself writes, “There is something about a small island that satisfies the heart of man.”
