Happy The Man : Episodes in an Exciting Life (in slipcase, with fold-out screen)

365pp, plus two sections of colour plate illustrations showing a selection of Scott's paintings. Paperback in illustrated card wrappers (gentle edge wear to covers, one corner bumped affecting early pages, else internally neat, clean, bright and tight barring a little tanning on endpapers). With a fold-out screen displaying one of Peter Scott's works. Both presented in a card slipcase (slipcase is rubbed at edges and a little worn all over, but still attractively presentable). 12mo. A portrait of Peter Scott culled from his own conversations, articles and broadcasts, encapsulating his views on, for instance, the ethics of shooting, expeditions to Lapland, skin-diving and Arctic Swans, the America's Cup, Conservation in Africa, Salvadori's Cup, Britain's Canals and more.
