$a "No excursion in the country could be more interesting and entertaining than those undertaken by Nomad and his young nephew Dick. In this new book they have many exciting experiences: they watch the Bempton climbers go down the cliffs in search of gulls’ eggs; they explore our inland waterways in the Pommie, a converted barge; and Dick has a thrilling escape when he rescues a farmer’s wife and child from a blazing farm-house. Roving with Nomad shows once again how masterly is Norman Eillison’s knowledge of wild-life in Britain. His many readers and B.B.C. listeners will welcome his latest fascinating story of the countryside. Illustrated by C.F. Tunnicliffe the eminent nature artist.” [dust-jacket]. |
