Stated First Edition 8vo size hardcover with dust jacket; 260 creamy deckle edged pages with black and white drawings and decorations by the author From jacket: "To those who love the wilderness the designation "roadless area" on a map is an invitation to explore.

The Brookes traveled to national parks and wilderness areas explored the old canals of England and went on a family safari sketching and photographing only to Kenya Uganda and Tanganyika. The book is a delightfully written evocative gently humorous account of a man and wife in the wilds."
