A classic Gerald Durrell title reissued by Penguin to celebrate the centenary of his birth

The Manor of the title is Les Augr s Manor in Trinity, Jersey. Inside, we find a remarkable collection of pen portraits of some of the creatures of Gerald Durrell's Zoo. We also discover some of the timeless lessons Durrell learned about making real and sustaining his childhood ambition of having his own zoo - and why conservation matters more than ever.

One of Gerald Durrell's most beloved titles is back in print as a Penguin paperback to celebrate the centenary of his birth.
