Postwar Britain has seen vast swathes ofthe countryside developed and habitatdestruction on an unprecedented scale.Even so, our tonsils, woodlands, hedgerows andrivers still teem with wildlife. This bookcelebrates the rich diversity of British wildlife, itsmammals, birds, arthropods, reptiles and fish.Nearly 200 species are described in detail, withmaps showing where each can be located, alongwith information on habitats and feeding habits.
