He captures the beauty of the English countryside and the struggles of the people who lived there. A Shepherd?s Life is a timeless classic that provides a fascinating insight into a way of life that has long since disappeared.Caleb was so taken with the pretty sight of all these little foxes, neighbours and playmates, that he went evening after evening to sit for an hour or longer watching them. One thing he witnessed which will perhaps be disbelieved by those who have not closely observed animals for themselves, and who still hold to the fable that all wild creatures are born with an inherited and instinctive knowledge and dread of their enemies. Rabbits swarmed at that spot, and he observed that when the old foxes were not about the young, half-grown rabbits would freely mix and play with the little foxes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
