WATERSHIP DOWN<br />

ADAMS, RICHARD<br />

Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012<br />

A phenomenal worldwide bestseller for almost forty years, Richard Adams’s Watership Down is a timeless<br />

classic and one of the most beloved novels of all time. Set in England’s Downs, a once idyllic rural landscape,<br />

this stirring tale of adventure, courage, and survival follows a band of very special rabbits on their flight from the<br />

intrusion of man and the certain destruction of their home. Led by a stouthearted pair of brothers, they journey<br />

forth from their native Sandleford Warren through the harrowing trials posed by predators and adversaries, to a<br />

mysterious promised land and a more perfect society.<br />
