Excerpt from Woodlanders and Field Folk: Sketches of Wild Life in BritainThe pretty things move on, stepping quietly through the trees. They are tailless, and the large white patch on the rump is very distinct in the moonlight. Suddenly something startles the leading buck. He stands for a moment motionless in the silver light that ¿oods the open aisle between the dark columns Of the pines. His head is uplifted, his delicate ears are alert, his intelligent eyes are bright with atten tion. Then he and his whole family break into a trot which is a perfect picture Of going, and so they disappear down the ride of the forest, and the summer night is emptied Of their wild, timid grace.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
