".With forewords by Brian Vesey-Fitzgerald and John Humphreys." "A mere ten miles from the centre of Cambridge lies an almost forgotten corner of the Fenland that was the last to succumb to modern agriculture. Now this primitive fenland has gone for ever. But before the draglines rumbled in, Dr. Ennion saw the last of it. With the keeper, Ernest Parr, he watched and sketched the birds of the waterland.
