was Black Hunting Whip, issued as a Scottie in 1956.
Edward Mortelmans painted the cover; a colourful depiction of
Lindsey and Dion on horseback.

I have a copy of Gerald Durrel's entertaining book Catch Me A Colobus
(Collins 1972) which has a dustwrapper by Edward Mortelmans,
and in this book he has provided many lively line drawings in the text.
