Denis SummersSmith first took up the study of the House Sparrow in 1947 thinking that the difficulties of travel in postwar Britain would best suit the study of a species always close at hand The humble House Sparrow common everywhere was surprisingly poorly researched and his work soon provided interesting insights into this successful and adaptable little bird As new opportunities to travel opened up his interest blossomed to take in the genus Passer as a whole His travels would ultimately lead to his study of all but one group found only in the deepest Turkestan and to the publication of his authoritative monograph on sparrows in 1988While that book presented his knowledge of sparrow biology this volume tells the other human side of the tale His wry descriptions of the tribulations and unexpected pleasures of a traveller on four continents from the Himalayas and Thailand to Africa and the Americas with a good few islands in between are interspersed with observations and speculations on the biology of sparrows in a wide variety of habitats Everywhere local officials and birdwatchers warmed to the eccentric Scot in pursuit of the little birds that nobody notices but which so often make their homes beside usThe authors own photographs and delightful cartoons by Euan Dunn further paint the picture of this lifelong search

Remarkable and astonishing says Jan Morris of Roy Moxhams account of his search for one of the leastknown wonders of Queen Victorias India and John Keay finds it a compelling read simply told and simply wonderful An unquestionably fascinating tale as well as a travel book and historical detective story The Great Hedge of India begins in a secondhand bookshop on Londons Charing Cross Road There Roy Moxham buys the memoir of a nineteenthcentury British colonial administrative officer who makes a passing reference to a giant hedge planted by the British across the Indian subcontinent That hedgewhich for fifty years had been manned and cared for by 12000 men and had run a length of 2500 milesbecomes what Moxham calls his ridiculous obsession Recounting a journey that takes him to exotic isolated villages deep in the interior of India Moxham chronicles his efforts to confirm the existence of the extraordinary impenetrable green wall that had virtually disappeared from two nations memories Not only does he discover the shameful role the hedge played in the exploitative Raj and the famines of the late nineteenth century but he also uncovers what remains of this British grand folly and restores to history what must be counted one of the worlds wondersand a monument to one of the great injustices of Victorian imperialism Grandly entertaining close to being a perfect story of a fanciful questBoston Globe
