‘Most children at the tender age of six or so are generally full of the most impractical schemes for becoming policemen, firemen or engine drivers when they grow up... I knew exactly what I was going to do I was going to have my own zoo.’
This is the hugely entertaining account of how the much-loved conservationist and author Gerald Durrell fulfilled his lifelong ambition by founding his own private sanctuary for endangered species in Jersey with the help of an enduring wife, a selfless staff and a reluctant bank manager. With a foreword by Lee Durrell, Honorary Director of the Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, this book about the trials and wonders of living in the middle of a zoo is a classic that will continue to bring pleasure to those who grew up reading Durrell, and deserves a whole new readership.
‘You can’t deny that there are some species that now exist because of him’ Craig Bennett, Friends of the Earth

Durrell has tales to tell about his animals and tells them in a most descriptive way. This is the second of his books which I have read.Product details

Menagerie Manor eBook Gerald Durrell Reviews
I must admit I've never heard of the author. This popped up as a recommendation so I thought "What the heck" and got it. This is a quick read, and easy read, an educational read, and an entertaining read. I'd even be interested in meeting some reptiles, thanks to this book. Anyone who has even a remote interest in animals should be reading this; scientists who say animals have no personalities should be reading this. I think any human who takes the time to allow this information into their brains will realize we may be the loudest creatures on earth, but we're not the only interesting ones.
The writing is so-so, but the stories are wonderful and elevating. I love all of the Durrell oeuvre.
GOOD BUT NOT AS GOODV AS HIS OTHER BOOKS BUT STILL VERY GOOD.
mr. durrelll has never written anything i don't absolutely love. check out his books about growing up on corfu with his insane family. they are not to be missed.
so much fun to read, i saw the series on pbs and had to have more...also love his whole point of view on conservation! GO ANIMAL LOVERS!!!
I have watched the PBS series of the Durrells on Corfu and throughly enjoyed it. Then I discovered this delightful book and readily equated the author to the youngest son in the series. This book is every time thing I expected it to be - delightful and entertaining.
This is a tremendous animal wildlife book that I didn't want to see end. I first heard of Gerald Durrell from the PBS series of The Durrells of Corfu and until reading this book had no idea of this great man's work and of the books he has written. I intend to read more of his works and heartily recommend this one to you.
Durrell has tales to tell about his animals and tells them in a most descriptive way. This is the second of his books which I have read.
