Henry William Williamson - Born: 1st December 1895 Brockley, London - Died: 13th August 1977 (81), Twyford Abbey, London.
This story of an otter is as true as long observation and keen insight could make it. It lets you live with Tarka and see at his level (that is much closer to the ground than our eye level) the wild life of that stretch of Devon country which runs from Dartmoor to the sea, between the rivers Torridge and Taw. With a good map you can follow almost every step of the story, every twist and turn of the rivers and the sandy stretches at the Estuary.
