'Mr. Tregarthen not only knows what he is writing about, but he knows how to write. The result is a singularly charming volume which will be read with delight, not only by lovers of one of the most fascinating of English counties, but by all who follow the chase of the otter, the badger, and the fox.'—County Gentleman.
'Mr. Tregarthen has written one of the best works about animals that we remember. . . . Mr. Tregarthen describes the pursuit of these creatures with the skill of an enthusiastic and experienced sportsman.'—Pall Mall Gazette.
'We should say that his book has all the charm of the best conversation; of a sportsman of the old school, mingled with that of a gamekeeper and a poacher, men who knew the night as well as they knew the day, a man as well as a fox.'—Daily Chronicle.
'We feel a most uncommon admiration for such a piece of pure Nature as Mr. J. C. Tregarthen's "Wild Life at the Land's End." It is altogether an honest, bluff, happy record of observations by one who loves the Cornish country with a genuine patriotism, and knows it as well as he loves it.'— World.
'Mr. Tregarthen's brightly written and exquisitely illustrated book is absolutely redolent of the breezy uplands and the surf-beaten beetling cliffs of the western duchy, and is evidently the work of a sportsman-naturalist of the old-fashioned and best type.'—Nature
'All these varied features of the Land's End region are reproduced in Mr. Tregarthen's book with the vividness and absence of straining after effect which only comes of long and intimate knowledge, and his descriptions of sport in their picturesque surroundings are some of the freshest and most vigorous which have appeared during recent years.'—Evening Standard.
'Not for a long time have I read a more fascinating book.'—Tatler.
'A volume which most readers will lay down with real regret. Is certain to become one of the classics of its county. It deserves a place on the bookshelves of every lover of nature and sport.'—Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News.
