In nine remarkable books Mike Tomkies has given us a unique and compelling account of his love affair with the wildlife of the western Highlands of Scotland. Central to all his adventures in the precipitous landscape surrounding his remote lochside home has been his study of the golden eagle, yet the first of his 'eagles encounters' was published in a book which has been out of print for almost a decade. Here is that classic tale revived, with a new introduction and some new photographs- all reproduced in colour.
