Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Conor Mark Jameson has spent most of his life exploring the natural environment and communicating his enthusiasm for it to family, friends and, more recently, readers of a range of newspapers and magazines. Shrewdunnit brings together the best of these dispatches, alongside unpublished essays, in… a poetic and evocative journal that inspires and delights. Jamesons prose is fresh and in places irreverent, with a hint of mischief and a dash of wit. From his back door to the peaks of New Zealand and the swamp forests of the Peruvian Amazon, he carries on the biogumentary style he perfected in his earlier books showing never telling how to bring nature and conservation home. He may just have invented a genre. Praise for Silent Spring Revisited A vividly told, beautifully written account of the environmentalist movement of the last fifty years and his own involvement in it . the author takes his place among the pre-eminent nature writers of our times. His clear, vivid writing skillfully weaves political and cultural history, personal observation and passionate advocacy for the conservation of our diminishing wildlife to create a book that will endure in the annals of natural history." Marie Winn If Nick Hornby loved nature, he might write a book like this. Martin Harper, RSPB Director of Conservation A lively read. what makes Jamesons work especially enjoyable is the personal slant. Matt Merritt, Editor, Birdwatching A fine writer, who brings together an artists sensibility with a conservationists sense of reality. a vital read. John Fanshawe, Birdwatch Praise for Looking for the Goshawk Conors cultured writing and enthusiasm for the natural world and the people, like him, who care about it, will carry you along through the chapters.

Paperback. Condition: New. The book traces Conor Jameson's travels in search of the Goshawk, a magnificent yet rarely seen (in Britain at least) raptor. Each episode of the narrative arises from personal experience, investigation, and the unearthing of information from research, exploration and conversations.The journey takes hi…m from an encounter with a stuffed Goshawk in a glass case, through travels into supposed Goshawk territories in Britain, to Berlin - where he finds the bird at ease in the city. Why, he wants to know, is the bird so rarely seen in Britain?He explores the politics of birdwatching, the sport of falconry and the impact of persecution on the recent history of the bird in Britain and travels the length of Britain, through central Europe and the USA in search of answers to the goshawk mystery. Throughout his journey he is inspired by the writings of T H White who told of his attempts to tame a Goshawk in his much-loved book.It's a gripping tale on the trail of a most mysterious and charismatic bird.
