429, [1] pp. 8vo. Chronicles the adventures of a group of rabbits searching for a safe place to establish a new warren where they can live in peace. Inspiration for the 1978 British animated film. Set in England's Downs, a once idyllic rural landscape, this stirring tale follows a band of very special creatures on their flight from the intrusion of man and the certain destruction of their home. Led by a stouthearted pair of brothers, they journey from their native Sandleford Warren, through the harrowing trials posed by predators and adversaries, and toward the dream of a mysterious promised land and a more perfect society.
