Ian Alcock has had a lifetime's experience of the study and sporting pursuit of deer, first in southern England and later as owner successively of a deer forest in the north-west Highlands of Scotland and a farm on Royal Deeside. In this book he looks at the native deer of Britain, especially Roe Deer and Red Deer, both as fascinating creatures in their own right, and also as worthy tests of the stalker's sporting skills. The book combines a sometimes controversial text with acutely observant sketches of deer and their ways by Diana Brown. The year and lifecycle of each species is fully discussed.
