The Mammals of Cheshire provides the first survey of mammals from the Cheshire region in nearly one hundred years. While the majority of the volume covers the region’s main species—including distribution, biology, identification, up-to-date maps, and habitats—additional chapters engage with the history of these mammal groups, their recording, and current conservation issues. Required reading for all those interested in the county’s natural environment, this richly illustrated volume includes over seventy-five pages of full-color photographs and specially commissioned line drawings.
