Description
This book is both the personal response of a ranger working to eliminate feral cats in a most challenging environment, and a philosophical probing into this "feral cat dilemma." The book immerses the reader in a world of sub-zero temperatures, gales, stink and struggle contrasted with the glory of an aurora or the majesty of an albatross. The narrative is immediate, raw and colourful, yet sometimes also lyrical. It is a marriage of science and poetry, told by a man who has fallen in love with a wild island.
