Author: Richard Adams

KDL Description:

In a constant struggle against oppression, a group of rabbits search for peaceful co-existence.

Amazon Description:

The setting is the rolling hills and meadows of England. The time is now — or tomorrow — or always. WATERSHIP DOWN is a saga of the maverick band who set out, against all odds, on a quest for a new home, a better society.

The heroes of this tale are animals — wild rabbits. Their behavior is consistent with the laws of nature, yet each is endowed with an unforgettable personality. The characterization and compelling plot fuse, transcending the animal world and illuminating man’s great humanity — and terrible inhumanity.

“WATERSHIP DOWN is one of those great stories, destined to be a classic, that every once in a long while lets us know the universe has something really mysteriously great going for humanity.” — R. Buckminster Fuller
