Opis

This vintage volume contains a selection of excerpts from Ernest Thompson Seton’s 1913 book; “Wild Animals At Home”. These fascinating and often amusing anecdotes are taken from the author’s personal experiences, and provide information on the habits and habitats of numerous wild animals. Contents include: “Old Silver Grizzle - The Badger”, “The Squirrel and his Jerky-Tail Brothers”, “The Rabbits and Their Habits”, “Bears of High and Low Degree”, “The Cute Coyote”, “The Prairie-Dog and his Kin”, “Sneak Cats, Big and Small”, etcetera. Ernest Thompson Seton (1860 - 1946) was a British artist, author, and one of the founders of the Boy Scouts of America. Many antiquarian texts such as this, especially those dating back to the 1900s and before, are increasingly hard to come by and expensive, and it is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now in an affordable, modern, high quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
