Down to Earth: Rediscovering Our Roots

By: Ashton, Robert

In Down to Earth, Robert Ashton explores every aspect of our relationship with soil. He looks at the history of how we have thought about and related to earth over the past half millennium, before telling the stories of practitioners who work with earth today - from gardeners to gravediggers, archaeologists to agriculturalists, naturists to naturalists.

Taking us with him on his quest to deepen his own understanding of the ground beneath our feet, he helps develop a more informed view of the importance of soil to all of our lives today.
