hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these).

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The woodcock - a mysterious, unpredictable, secretive bird, loved by so many sportsmen and naturalists alike. For centuries, artists have been inspired by this iconic bird; its shape and colouring, its habitat, and its migratory pattern. In this book, eight leading sporting artists have their own chapter in which they portray the woodcock in their own unique style from pencil, watercolours and oils to outstanding sculptures. They are images to be treasured and they capture the woodcock in flight and on the ground. A stunning book, beautifully designed and to be savoured by everyone whose blood begins to tingle when they catch sight of the woodcock silently flitting through the trees. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

"Conceived, written and illustrated solely by celebrated wildlife artist Simon Gudgeon and with all proceeds from sale being donated to The Game Conservancy Trust, A Passion for Grouse can be shared by anyone who cares about our country's unique wildlife. Conceived, written and illustrated solely by celebrated wildlife artist Simon Gudgeon and with all proceeds from sale being donated to The Game Conservancy Trust, A Passion for Grouse can be shared by anyone who cares about our country's unique wildlife. It examines the grouse moors - how they were formed, whats keeps them going - and their inhabitants; grouse, of course, but also many other creatures which share those apparently empty landscapes. And of course the role of man, without whom these expanses of austere beauty would not exist. The stars of the book, however, are without doubt the paintings. To illustrate this book Simon has produced a huge body of work: it ranges from large paintings such as magnificent watercolour of a covey streaming across the heather down to the simplest sketch of a hare. Perfectly capturing the flavour of the grouse moor and its inhabitants, this superb collection celebrates both a unique bird and a habitat that is increasingly coming under threat". Simon Gudgeon (illustrator).…
