An Otter on the Aga by Rex Harper
Meet the remarkable Rex Harper, the Cornish-based combination of St Francis of Assisi and The Birdman of Alcatraz, James Herriot and Doctor Dolittle. Few men in Britain know more about the amazingly diverse creatures that inhabit our islands
'A highly engaging, sometimes poignant and sad chronicle of this remarkable man's devotion to abused and abandoned creatures during some 40 years tending these waifs and strays in Cornwall' -- Bookseller 'Avoids any cloying sentimentality while remaining rich in anecdote and humour' -- Sunday Express
Rex Harper set up home in Cornwall in 1958 after serving in the RAF as a police dog handler. He worked in a local woollen mill and post office whilst building up his farm with his wife Julie, becoming the full-time RSPCA warden of the Perranporth centre in 1987. He was awarded the MBE for services to animal welfare in 2003.
