It has the indefinable but exciting atmosphere common to all islands and has many of the features which distinguish the animals and plants from those of the nearest mainland. Add to these a unique geology, an incomparable coastline and a mild maritime climate and something of the special quality of Anglesey becomes apparent.<\/p>\n<p>This book is a celebration of Anglesey&#8217;s natural history and also a far-from-exhaustive record of the state of things here towards the end of the twentieth century.<br \/>\nThis is a time of profound and rapid change, some measures of which may be seen if reference is made to a similar book (The Natural History of Anglesey, Vol. 2 in this series) which appeared in 1968.<br \/>\nAs in the case of the earlier volume, the authors hope that their contributions will encourage their readers to appreciate this delectable island and to seek for ways in which it may be preserved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to order<\/strong><br \/>\nIf you would like to order by post please use our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hanesmon.org.uk\/aaswp\/wp-content\/uploads\/pubordfrm5.pdf\">order form available here<\/a> or click on the button below if you want to order on line via PayPal.<\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\" target=\"_top\"><input name=\"cmd\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/>Note that the shipping cost covers just shipping within the United Kingdom. <strong>If you wish to have the book shipped to another part of the world please contact us at <a href=\"mailto:aas.publications@hanesmon.org.uk\">aas.publications@hanesmon.org.uk<\/a> for a shipping quote.<\/strong><br \/>\n<input name=\"hosted_button_id\" type=\"hidden\" value=\"CQ9NNFWXHY9QU\" \/><br \/>\n<input alt=\"PayPal \u2013 The safer, easier way to pay online.\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/GB\/i\/btn\/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif\" type=\"image\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_GB\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<div class=\"pdfprnt-buttons pdfprnt-buttons-page pdfprnt-bottom-right\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hanesmon.org.uk\/aaswp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/194?print=print\" class=\"pdfprnt-button pdfprnt-button-print\" target=\"_blank\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hanesmon.org.uk\/aaswp\/wp-content\/plugins\/pdf-print\/images\/print.png\" alt=\"image_print\" title=\"Print Content\" \/><span class=\"pdfprnt-button-title pdfprnt-button-print-title\">Printer Friendly<\/span><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Edited by Dr. W.
