Dust jacket has light edge wear. Inside pages clean and binding is tight.In Latin "salar" means "leaper" and to the Romans who first came to England the name perfectly described the magnificent sea-run salmon that fought their way up rivers and streams.In Henry Williamson's great nature story, Salar is a five-year-old salmon returning to the stream of his birth. He faces great dangers, cruising lampreys, poachers with their cruel nets and spears, sharp-eyed otters, cascading falls, all between Salar and his goal in the spawning sands. This is a book about life and death, and not just about a salmon, set in an intricate depiction of nature. This edition is beautifully illustrated by Mike Loates.
