First edition, first printing (1957). Original brown cloth boards with gilt lettering to the spine and gilt fox vignette to the upper board, complete with the original unclipped dust jacket priced 25s net.
Written and illustrated by renowned British wildlife artist Eileen A. Soper, Wild Encounters records the author?s first-hand observations of British wildlife, including badgers, foxes, birds, hares and other countryside animals. Illustrated throughout with Soper?s distinctive black and white drawings.
The book is in very good condition with a firm binding, clean pages and no ownership inscriptions or bookplates. The dust jacket is complete and unclipped, showing light rubbing, a little edge wear, a few small chips and creasing to the spine and extremities, remaining an attractive example overall.
A desirable first edition of one of Soper?s increasingly collectible natural history works, particularly uncommon in its original unclipped dust jacket.
