A common resident of British gardens and parks, the grey squirrel was introduced from North America in the late nineteenth century and remains something of a foreign interloper. By examining this species' rapid spread across Britain, Peter Coates explores timely issues of belonging, nationalism, and citizenship in Britain today. Ultimately, though people are swift to draw distinctions between British squirrels and squirrels in Britain, \u003ci\u003eSquirrel Nation\u003c\/i\u003e shows that Britain's two squirrel species have much more in common than at first appears.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Coates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1789147700\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781789147704\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/22\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 5.59w x 1.42d","brand":"Peter Coates","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44227667493119,"sku":"9781789147704","price":29.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9410f6b5-8491-4d33-8485-2db6e67630d9.jpg?v=1692809937","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/squirrel-nation-peter-coates-9781789147704","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
