MILNER, ALEXANDER & GRIFFIN.

A HIGHLAND DEER HERD AND ITS HABITAT.

2002

Many coloured photo illustrations and drawings; b/w photos, diagrams, maps etc. Bound in quality cloth binding, with colour dust wrapper. Small 4to. 367 pages. "... I can say without bias that I consider this to be the most important book published on red deer in Scotland recently and essential reading for anyone interested in the subject of deer, particularly of Scottish red deer. This is especially so in the current situation where deer and landowners of deer ground are under constant criticism, most of which is ill informed, plain wrong and often politically motivated". An important and remarkable study of the deer herd on the Letterewe estate, owned by Paul van Vlissingen. This is one of the most significant works on Scottish red deer for the past 50 years, and should be acquired by all those with an interest in the future of Scottish reds. A most important and detailed study, by three leading experts.
