Cats
Naturally (Faber & Faber, 1991)
Cat lovers everywhere will be intrigued by the variety of natural
foods, in addition to meat and fish, which are acceptable to cats, ranging from
sweet corn to berries. Affectionate, clever, amusing and resourceful though
they are, some cats do have behaviour problems, and these are dealt with here.
Finally the list of names from all over the world will be invaluable when
naming a kitten. The Complete Herbal Handbook

Wander (Faber & Faber, 1956) A Travel Book.
"Her sincerity gives a force almost Borovian to her gypsy
revelations, whether they concern her friends in Surrey or their fiercer
fellows in Spain and France, North Africa and Turkey where the sun is all but
deified. The place is immaterial: wherever she finds them the author has a
great heart for the gypsies, and much of what they have taught her and learned
from her is embodied in this picture of their wandering life."

of infinite attraction." The Times Literary Supplement

of door lore, and armed with the tenfold strength of deep simplicity."

York (Faber & Faber, 1965) A Travel Book
Juliette, her two young children and an Afghan hound explore the
city's wild plants, its birds, the litter in the streets, the wrack along the
rivers, the alley cats and of course the Gypsies. "As a traveller, she
makes other recorders of their journeys seem like waterflies skating over the
surface of a pond. Her progress across a country is antlike, from stone to
stone and from stalk to stalk of grass." Stephen Spender

An invaluable source of information and guidance for the open air
traveler - even short term hikers and picnickers - this book is also a loving
celebration of the freedom of the wanderer's life and the enjoyment of the
wonders reserved for those who journey afoot. "I definitely prescribe
this book for all overworked care givers; take a few hours off to experience a
different way of being, and possibly even get a glimpse of that Paradise that
was once home to our ancestors, the hunters and gatherers, perhaps the last
truly free and happy people." Townsend Letter for Doctors
