Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Publication: Glasgow, William Collins Sons & Co Ltd, 1975 Formatting: 8vo, pp. 256. Condition Report: Near Fine. The binding remains uniformly tight and square, bound in the publisher's original green cloth which is entirely unbowed and free from shelf-wear or bumping to the corners. Internally, the pages are wonderfully bright and crisp, showing no evidence of foxing, toning, or previous ownership inscriptions, while the text-block edges remain neat and unblemished. The accompanying dust jacket is presented in Very Good condition; it retains its vibrant, unoxidised colouration and iconic New Naturalist design, showing only minimal edge-wear and the faintest hint of rubbing to the extremities. Catalogue Note: Forming Volume 58 of the highly esteemed and deeply collected 'New Naturalist' series, this is a second impression of the original 1974 edition. A charming piece of ephemeral provenance accompanies the volume: a previous owner has neatly inserted a vintage newspaper clipping regarding the historic 'Penny Hedge' at Whitby, an ancient penance ritual involving the daily construction of a hedge from hazel twigs, serving as a wonderfully thematic bookmark. Reprints of the earlier, classic New Naturalist titles remain highly sought after by natural history enthusiasts seeking bright, robust reading copies as alternatives to the increasingly scarce first editions. A comprehensive and pioneering study on the history, ecology, and management of the British hedgerow. Pollard, Hooper, and Moore systematically explore the origins of hedges, from ancient historical enclosures to modern agricultural boundaries, while detailing the astonishing diversity of flora and fauna they support. Blending deep historical research with robust ecological science, this volume offers a fascinating evaluation of the hedgerow's crucial role in the British landscape, celebrating it both as a vital sanctuary for wildlife and a highly functional tool for the farmer.…
