A first-class book on sport and country life in a border county by a well-known contributor to magazines such as 'Country Life' and 'The Field'.Few people are better qualified to write about the border country and the ways and habits of its wild life; and Mr Tegner writes with an impressive vividness,whether dealing with personal experiences of foxes or poachers, Roe deer or Black Grouse,or the exigencies of an otter hunt. Little more need be said,except that the handsome production of this book for country-lovers is greatly enhanced by its very fine illustrations,from the pen of an artist whose work is famous for its power to capture the spirit of an outdoor scene, D.J. Watkins-Pitchford. Since April 2013,the UK Post Office has altered it's Pricing in Proportion template,altering its prices,weight allowances,dimensions and lowered its compensation rates too!
