'Wild Food, Nature and Hidden Treasures on the Pathways of Britain' is the sub-title of a book which urges us to walk slowly, look closely and have fun. It covers eight walks through the British countryside across pebble beaches and sandy shores, over dunes and grassland, through shady, verdant city streets, alongside ancient hedgerows and rich, forgotten water meadows, up mountainsides, over hills, by rolling fields, wild and tamed, through one of Britain's rare rainforests, deep into woodlands, mire and heath, and out of the other side. It reveals natural wonders and human histories that shape any and every walk and shows how to find them for yourself. We are entertained by a blissfully funny, informative and joyful companion who makes every delicate detail sparkle with life. John Wright is an expert forager who reveals the natural history, stories and science behind our surroundings. With beautiful green edged pages and decorated endpapers, 334pp, many colour plates. All copies SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR.
