Woods, Hedges and Leafy Lanes by Richard Muir

The landscapes of Britain have been shaped by hundreds of generations, moulding the countryside to fit with their own ideals, through the planting of hedgerows and wooded pastures. This type of scenery has been long in the making, with new additions and flourishes being added every century, yet in today's modern world it is rapidly being transplanted by concrete and tarmac. This absorbing new book unravels the history of these landscapes.
Dr Richard Muir, who describes himself as a Dalesman by birth and a Scot by inclination, is the author of over 40 books. He is also Honorary Research Fellow in Geography and Environment, University of Aberdeen. He is the author of Ancient Trees, Living Landscapes, published by Tempus.
