Gavin Maxwell b. 1914 d. 1969 was a Scottish naturalist adventurer writer and someone who proceeded through life to a much different beat than most of us. It helped that he was an aristocrat and came from money. From 1948 to 1968 he lived off and on at "Camusfeàrna" which is what he called his remote house on the coast of the West Highlands. He had many adventures there most of which centered around his interactions with various animals -- including stags wildcats seals porpoises killer whales and numerous wildfowl -- but the stars of his naturalist world were a handful of otters. The beauty wonder and humor of this book will gently surface with a ring of bright ripples in the waters of you mind. I am never able to remember this book without simultaneously wanting to laugh and to cry-and always with a sense of awed wonder. This is the true story of Gavin's befriending of otters or perhaps we should say of the otters' decision to befriend Gavin. In one scene on the first night Gavin has one of the otters in his home the otter carefully watches Gavin get into bed and pull the covers to his chin. The otter then crawls in beside Gavin lies on its back and pulls the covers to its own chin. Other scenes describe Gavin's losing efforts to make certain parts of his cottage off limits to otters. Gavin never for the rest of his life produced prose that so translucently coveys the beauty of the waters around his cottage or the sense of his own evolving life and emotions. ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 279 pages .
