Bryn, born in a secluded spinney on the Carters' Farm, is all-too-soon acquainted with the hazards of a badger's life, most of which are caused by man. Somehow he survives, only to face the greatest threat of all. Bryn's progress is observed by young Tim Carter, who feels responsible for the badgers born on his father's land and determinedly sets out to help.
How Bryn meets and copes with the worst dangers ever to face the badger species makes an exciting story, full of ecological interest, in the hands of a writer whose remarkable gift for animal observation has invited comparison with Henry Williamson.
