Grey squirrels, by contrast, are one of the most frequently seen wild creatures in our gardens, parks, towns and countryside. Many Britons consider it to be a foreign interloper, introduced from North America in the late nineteenth century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy examining this animal's colonisation of Britain, Peter Coates also explores timely issues of belonging, nationalism, citizenship, and the defence of borders within Britain today. Ultimately, though people are swift to draw distinctions between British squirrels and squirrels in Britain, \u003cem\u003eSquirrel Nation\u003c\/em\u003e shows that Britain's two squirrel species have much more in common than at first appears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"NewSouth Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46849971519724,"sku":"9781789147704","price":44.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/28006083482824.jpg?v=1759069768","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/squirrel-nation-by-peter-coates-9781789147704","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
