Part travelogue, part wildlife art portfolio, this marvellous book is the record of Alan Johnston's journeys in search of storks, from Luxembourg and Germany to Niger, Togo, Senegal, Mauritania, Israel, Gibraltar and Morocco. Fabulously illustrated throughout by the author's black and white and colour sketches and paintings, covering an amazing diversity of subjects - black storks in a variety of settings, owls, wild flowers, frogs, foxes, butterflies, fishes and landscapes. A glorious book, surely destined to become a classic of the genre.
