Reseña del editor
A Last Wild Place is Tomkies' bestseller - the book for which he will be remembered more than for any of the other eight he has written about the remote Highland lochside cottage and its surrounding hills where he has lived alone for twenty years without electricity, gas, telephone or postal service, studying the wildlife. Here the one-time Hollywood journalist gives a remarkable picture of the whole cycle of nature through the seasons in a harsh environment of unrivalled beauty. The Duke of Edinburgh wrote in the Good Book Guide: 'The North West of Scotland is indeed a wild place, but to the observant eye of the author it is full of wonderful life. This book does more than describe a piece of wild country and its population of wild animals: it gives a vivid picture of someone wholly absorbed by his subject.'
Biografía del autor
Mike Tomkies discovered his passion for wildlife as a boy, but was forced by circumstances to abandon it. He served with the Coldstream Guards in the Middle East and then became a successful Fleet Street journalist, later freelancing in Paris, Madrid and Rome, and was a Hollywood columnist until he emigrated to the Canadian wilds, where he wrote Alone in the Wilderness. On returning to Britain, he lived first in a derelict croft on an island off the Scottish coast, then settled in the remote lochside cottage he called Wildernesse. There he wrote nine books about the wildlife in the Western Highlands. In 1988 he was made an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland.
