Generations of children have been captivated by the exploits of
Jemima Puddle-Duck, Squirrel Nutkin, Peter Rabbit and the host of
other characters conjured up by Beatrix Potter. Packed with
original artwork, Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature, looks at secrets
to her success and celebrates her wider life and legacy - her
passions and accomplishments - that stretch far beyond the pages of
her storybooks. Charting her life, from her childhood in South
Kensington, London to her later years in the Lake District,
Annemarie Bilclough and Emma Laws show how Potter's exceptional
affinity with nature from an early age ensured the success of her
stories - underneath the costumes were real, believable, animals.
Sara Glenn highlights Potter's entrepreneurial talents whilst Lucy
Shaw takes readers on a Victorian holiday. Contributions from
Richard Fortey and James Rebanks reveal her work in the field of
mycology and transformation into a farmer, and Liz Hunter
MacFarlane discusses her profound impact on the preservation of the
Lake District landscape. Naturalist, creative pioneer, storyteller,
determined entrepreneur - Potter has been described as 'a
many-sided genius' and Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature allows
readers a tantalising glimpse into the life of this extraordinary
woman.
