Quatrième de couverture
Johnny Kingdom is the living embodiment of the English countryside. He has spent his whole life on or around Exmoor, from his childhood spent trapping moles to sell their skins, to his early adventures as a poacher, to today, when the demands of wildlife photography mean that extraordinary patience is more important than the ability to run fast.
Johnny still lives in the same village as his father and his father before him. Married to his childhood weetheart, Julie, he took on his dad's official job as the local gravedigger (and his unofficial living as a poacher) before a horrific accident Made him change his lifestyle and seek less physically demanding work - wildlife photography. Johnny's book is full of hilarious escapades, from the story of his night sharing a jail cell with a red deer stag to how he persuaded the local badger population to run along a mini assault course, turning wheels and tilting up and down on see-saws.
As Johnny takes the world by storm with his own successful TV series, meet the man behind the camouflage...
'An unlikely new star of the small screen... Johnny Kingdom has rustic England coursing through his veins. He is the spirit of Exmoor in all its bluff, breezy essentials' Daily Telegraph
Présentation de l'éditeur
Johnny Kingdom is the English countryside made flesh. He has lived his whole life on Exmoor, from his childhood catching moles to sell their skins, to his early wild days of adventure as a poacher, to today, when the demands of wildlife photography make extraordinary patience rather more useful than the ability to run fast... He embodies a way of life that may soon be gone for ever. His life story is both highly entertaining and completely enchanting.
In Johnny Kingdom - A Wild Life on Exmoor, we see how integral the both the landscape and the creatures of Exmoor have been to Johnny's often hair-raising life story. When a horrific accident made him change his lifestyle and seek less physically demanding work, Johnny found solace in wildlife photography and has never looked back. His book is full of hilarious and captivating stories of his escapades, from how he spent the night in a jail cell with a red deer, to how he persuaded the local badger population to run along a mini assault course, turning wheels and tilting up and down on see-saws.
Johnny is a wonderfully charismatic raconteur. This amazing book and new ITV series are already conferring on him the title of national treasure.
