ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1968). (1968) 1970 reprint. 8vo (143 x 222mm). Pp288. B/w illustrations by B.S. Biro. Teal boards, spine titled in gilt. Dedication to end-paper. Top edge slightly dusty, top corners bumped. Good-plus in rubbed dust-wrapper. John Norman…Stuart, 'Johnnie', Buchan was the eldest son of the writer John Buchan, and succeeded to his father's title as the 2nd Baron Tweedsmuir. Johnnie followed a similar career to his father as a colonial civil servant and author, although in less resounding positions (his father was Governor General of Canada) and with smaller book sales. He also contributed to, and appeared as a character in, one or two of his father's later books. Tweedsmuir, as a member of the House of Lords, and his wife Priscilla, an MP in the Commons, were the driving force behind the Protection of Birds Act, 1954, and saw it through parliament between them. After Lord Tweedsmuir's death, the title passed to his younger brother, author and sometime London editor of Reader's Digest, William De l'Aigle Buchan. "Twenty years ago I married and made a home in Scotland after a generation's absence. We settled down in Aberdeenshire, where my wife, and her forbears, had always lived. We spent our first four years in a little castle among the high mountains, and the next sixteen years within sight and sound of the northern sea." Chapters include: Braemar; Upper Deeside; Among the mountains; Beside the river; Potterton; The parish; Familiars; The Great Gale; Trees; The shore; Aberdeen; The journey; London; Protection of Birds Act, 1954. Birds; Animals; Cold winters and wet days; The Parish in pawn: The fame of the Fordyces; Explosive genius; A sword in India. .
