5.0 out of 5 stars
"Must-Have" Resource for this History Writer,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fauna Britannica: The Practical Guide to Wild & Domestic Creatures of Britain (Hardcover)
I checked this book out of my local library while working on a novel that is placed in Southern Scotland/Northern England in the 500's A.D/C.E. I needed to know the fauna of the area at this time. Not only did I learn this but I gleaned a host of other historical details about the times and people that raised, hunted and/or feared these animals. It is such an excellent resource - with a diverse bibliography that helped me get to prime sources - that I have chosen to purchase it for my personal library. The price tag is extremely reasonable for the in-depth information and stunning photography of this well written, easy to read book.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Enriched by a healthy dose of natural history,

This review is from: Fauna Britannica: The Practical Guide to Wild & Domestic Creatures of Britain (Hardcover)
Duff Hart-Davis' FAUNA BRITANNICA has a specialized focus which may limit its audience to British libraries, but this colorful and weighty reference will prove a strong work for any whose interest in animals has been awakened. Creatures wild and domesticated which have lived and now live in the British Isles are covered in colorful detail enriched by a healthy dose of natural history.
