I was disappointed with this because I thought it was a Durrell I'd never before seen- but it's actually bits and bobs from other books which I've already read. So, yay, Durrell! Boo, warmed-over Durrell! Still, warmed-over Durrell trumps many another nature writer. And it's always worth revisiting

This was a quick, fun read. It is outdated, because as far as I know people generally do not go into the wild to collect specimens much anymore (except for marine species). But Durrell obviously loves the animals and his work, and he tells wonderful stories!
