A delightful photo-filled celebration of this uniquely charismatic Scottish cattle breed. One of Britain’s most popular farm animals, these long-horned, curly-coated cows are among the many subjects featured in Villager Jim’s daily online photographic adventures, which have gained numerous followers. Jim, who’s earned an Editor’s Choice in the British Wildlife Photography Awards, wanders among the herds throughout the seasons, taking shots from many different angles as they graze on moorland, heathland, woodland copses, and lush green farmland. Getting close to one to photograph is a respectful journey; although they are normally very peaceful animals, Jim is always mindful to stay within their field of view and not invade their space too much. Many of Jim’s shots have a comic element to them, with the cows’ fondness for constant nose cleaning and their serious but amusing expressions semi-hidden behind masses of tangled hair. The photos and captions in this colorful collection are a unique treat for anyone who loves animals.

Villager Jim, the famous Peak District photographer, takes us on a journey to his very favorite places on the moors surrounding the Peak District National Park, where he lives. From wonderful wild deer to breathtaking buzzards and other birds of prey, Jim allows us a glimpse of his daily moorland travels with all the abundant wildlife that lives in that part of the world. Jim often concedes that it is his most favorite place on earth, being out alone with his camera within this unforgiving landscape, watching the sun rise on the horizon, whilst at the same time, seeing stags wander, grazing on the moorland. It is here also that many of his favorite birds of prey abound. And, of course, he is there to capture the beautiful landscape shots rolling in mists or washed in the golden light of dawn.

The study of diverse yet comparable regions uncovers structural similarities that override the defective culture theory of developing regions as well as the belief that they are unique ecological phenomena. This collected work establishes Appalachia as a case study for a coherent cross-national perspective. Written by authorities on the social and economic problems of these regions, this work should assist in alleviating some of the most striking misconceptions about regional development.
