Description
No marks or inscriptions. A very clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn or creased with slight traces of storage. 144pp. The author tells the extraordinary story of one of nature's unsung heroes, the feral pigeon, tracing its ancestry back to the wild rock dove - from the despatch of pigeons in 1204BC to announce the coronation of Rameses III to their modern adaptation to man's urban life
