Henry Williamson remains best known for his classic nature stories, Tarka the Otter and Salar the Salmon. Less well known is that for a twenty-year period Williamson was a contributor to the prestigious American literary magazine Atlantic Monthly, with contributions including examples of his nature sketches, short stories (including perhaps his best, 'A Crown of Life'), and tales of his later experiences when farming in North Norfolk during the late 1930s and the early years of the Second World War. Central to the collection is 'Salar the Salmon', a condensed version of Williamson's best-selling novel which successfully preserves, in the Atlantic's phrase, the 'pulse and vitality' of the original. Now collected for the first time, this makes a perfect anthology of Henry Williamson's work.
