David Brian Plummer?was a British writer, teacher, dog breeder, and something of a countryside maverick. Born in Bridgend, Wales, in 1936, he led a colourful and unconventional life that included stints as a gamekeeper in Europe, a professional boxer in America, and a teacher in the UK. He's best known for his books on working dogs, hunting, and rural life, often blending gritty realism with eccentric humour. His most popular works include Tales of a Rat-Hunting Man, Rogues and Running Dogs, and The Complete Jack Russell Terrier. He also developed the Plummer Terrier, a breed named after him. Plummer's writing is steeped in the traditions of British field sports and self-sufficiency, often reflecting his deep connection to the countryside and its characters his books remain cult favourites among enthusiasts of rural lore and working dogs.
