Excellent detail on nature and wildlife and hunting. Rather less pleasant in its metaphors for the Edwardian English class system - there are some animals deers do not associate with - and its rural suspicions of town and city types. Obviously the class system is all very well and good if you're a red deer (top of the chain), or a member of the Fortescue family (likewise, one assumes), but it's a less attractive deal for the rest of us. Interesting historical document. Capable author. Read it while in Exmoor; helped me get a handle on the place. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
Once upon a time there was a little Red-Deer Calf. You know what a Red-Deer is, for you of all boys have been brought up to know, though it may be that you have never seen a calf very close to you. A very pretty little fellow he was, downy-haired and white-spotted, though as yet his legs were rather long and his ears were rather large, for he was still only a very few weeks old.
