'The Wild Isles' Book
The landscapes of Britain and Ireland, together with the creatures and plants that inhabit them, have penetrated deep in our collective imagination. From Gilbert White and Dorothy Wordsworth to Laurie Lee and Nan Shepherd, literature inspired by the natural world has become an integral part of our shared identity, and shaped our relationship with the islands we call home.
The pieces chosen by Patrick Barkham in this anthology of British and Irish nature writing celebrate the land in all its rich diversity, yet also touch on some of the issues facing the natural world today. Arranged in themes - such as woods, birds, childhood and future nature - there are extracts from much-loved classics alongside passages by acclaimed contemporary writers such as Robert Macfarlane and Helen Macdonald.
