About this product

Product Information

'Turn to Christopher Somerville's gloriously idiosyncratic guide, and imagine yourself altogether elsewhere' SUNDAY TIMES Storm-battered headlands, hidden waterfalls, tumbledown cottages, the ruins of haunted chapels deep in forgotten woods, medieval Green Men, old mines and quarries being recaptured by nature, rusting sea-forts tottering on sandbanks . . . Britain and Ireland are full of wild places, some remote, many often astonishingly close to home. Christopher Somerville has travelled through fields and green lanes, in forests and mountains and on lonely coasts, seeking out his favourite 500 untamed treasures. This book will show you how everyone can discover a piece of the wild for themselves. 'Brilliant and heartfelt . . . magnificent . . . an extraordinary work which looks set to reconfigure our relationship with the great outdoors . . . Somerville provides a spectacular reminder of just how much more there is to these islands than tawdry theme parks and tatty 'heritage' experiences, and he equips us to discover it for ourselves' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH 'A wonderful tome for anyone seeking wilderness on their doorstep' COUNTRY WALKING 'An excellent survey . . . Somerville belongs to the fine tradition of British nature writers that is at once informative and poetic' COLIN TUDGE, FINANCIAL TIMES 'A true compendium of the wild coast and countryside . . . you are left with the impression that here is a writer with whom you would like to spend time' COUNTRY LIFE 'Utterly charming . . . a wonderful book and elegant reference guide' IRISH TIMES
