Wild Animals at Home

Complete and unabridged, with 60 full-page plates by Karl Robert von Planitz, Rosa Bonheur and Frederic Edwin Church. The coyote, the prairie-dog, the bighorn, the antelope and the grizzly, watched in Yellowstone and on the plains by a man who preferred a field-glass to a rifle. Ernest Thompson Seton founded the Woodcraft movement and drew every animal he wrote about. He argues that a wild animal has a biography, and then writes several. Its 109 original illustrations have been carefully restored and coloured for this edition.
