Field Notes from the Edge: Journeys Through Britain's Secret Wilderness

By Paul Evans

Book Overview

In Field Notes from the Edge, the acclaimed writer of the Guardian's Country Diary, Paul Evans, takes us on a journey through the in-between spaces of Nature--such as strandlines, mudflats, cliff tops, and caves--where one wilderness is on the verge of becoming another and all things are possible. Here, Evans searches out wildlife and plants to reveal a Nature that is inspiring yet intimidating; miraculous yet mundane; part sacred space, part wasteland. It is here that we tread the edge between a fear of Nature's dangers and a love of Nature's beauty. Combining a naturalist's eye for observation with a poet's ear for the lyrical, Field Notes from the Edge confirms Paul Evans's place among our leading nature writers today.
