A Black Fox Running
Brian Carter
A beautiful lost classic of nature writing which deserves to sit alongside Tarka the Otter, Watership Down, War Horse and The Story of a Red Deer Set in the 1940s, A Black Fox Running tells the story of a dark-furred Dartmoor fox, Wulfgar. The malevolent presence of Scobie the trapper and his crazed lurcher, Jacko, hangs over the lives of the wild creatures of Dartmoor. Against this and the background of the Great Blizzard of 1947, Wulfgar fights for the fox hill nation and those he loves. Finding both joy and pain, and coming face to face with death at the hand of both hunter and trapper, Wulfgar runs with the seasons over the bleak tors and wild places of Dartmoor. A classic work of animal anthropomorphism, Brian Carter brings the wilds of Dartmoor to life in this beautiful, profound and magical story.
