"Though this book includes birds and such small animals as dormice and stoats, its main theme is the life of the badger. As a record of the behaviour of one colony of badgers over a consecutive period of four years, it is unique. ...This record of the fortunes and mistfortunes of a badger colony has great fascination..." Numerous good illustrations from life by this noted illustrator and artist.
