A glorious reassertion of the importance of place and one of the purest nature books I have ever readMark Cocker ---- He turns simple observations into something timeless and beautiful. Stephen Moss ----- Only a writer with the cloest ties to a landscape and its ecology can observe as he does; this is a hugely admirable piece of work, intelligent, sharp-eyed, individual and honest. Richard Smyth ----- Extremely beautiful writing; up there with the best. ...brilliant descriptions of nature. Geoff Hill
