Wild woods come alive with a true outdoorsman's journal and nature stories.

Beasts of the Field weaves vivid scenes of forest life with thoughtful observations, inviting readers to see animals and their world through one observer’s eyes.

Across pages of woodland encounters, you’ll meet red and gray squirrels, cunning predators, patient trackers, and a thoughtful hunter who learns from the wild. The author blends anecdote with natural history, painting each creature’s habits in concrete, memorable detail. It’s a portrait of a place where humans listen, watch, and sometimes rethink their plans in the face of curiosity and the untamed world.

Meet Meeko the red squirrel and his clever games, from nest steals to log chases.
Watch Kagax the hunter as he tracks prey with nose and patience, a study in the art of pursuit.
Follow Tookhees the wood mouse and the delicate balance between cunning, danger, and hunger.
See how human and animal lives intersect, from camp life to the lessons learned in the woods.

Ideal for readers who love nature writing, outdoor exploration, and intimate wildlife vignettes that feel part field guide, part bulletin from the wild.
