In 1957, after travelling in southern Iraq, Gavin Maxwell returned to the West Highlands of Scotland with an otter cub called Mijbil. Written in a remote cottage, this enduring story evokes the seascape and wildlife of the place where they set up home together. Ring of Bright Water was hailed as a masterpiece when it was first published and it remains one of the most lyrical, moving descriptions of the natural world.

Fifty years on it remains one of the most lyrical, moving descriptions of a man's relationship with the natural world. This edition is unabridged and includes all the illustrations from the first edition
