Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Man and Nature on Tidal Waters
The kind reception given to my three previous East Coast books has emboldened me to add another volume to the series. I make no apology for its appearance. My chief reasons for publishing it are that I may interest others in the wild life and unique characters of a delightful corner Of East Anglia, and record traits and features that ere long must be greatly altered or wholly lost.
I have added many new incidents and impres sions of birds and other creatures, and as far as possible I have dispensed with dates. Many of the characters introduced will be new to my readers, and those whom they may have met with before are accredited with entirely new facts. Alas! Since the publication of my other volumes, some of the poor old fellows, whose sayings and doings I have recorded, have been gathered to their fathers or have drifted into obscurity.
