The Badger.
London: Penguin, 1958. Reprint. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Item #521310
176 pages, several plates. The Badger is Ernest Neal's compact, authoritative natural-history study of one of Britain's most distinctive mammals. Drawing on field observation and early ecological research, Neal describes the badger's anatomy, diet, nocturnal habits, territorial organisation and the structure of its setts, along with its long cultural presence in British folklore. The tone is clear and factual, typical of Penguin's late-1950s science list, giving general readers a reliable picture of how badgers live, breed and interact with their environment at a time when systematic mammal studies were still developing. Original printed card covers. Covers marked. Spine rubbed. Contents clean. Size: 11 x 19 cms. Category: Varied Books; New Arrivals;.
