With Britain's islands holding more than three-quarters of the
Earth's stock of heather moorland, it is an extraordinary fact that
it stands as one of the world's rarest habitats. A landscape
beloved by millions, it's renowned for the tranquillity and solace
it provides - however, this tranquillity is an illusion. Britain's
moorlands have, in less than a decade, moved from a position of
benign consensus to the epicentre of the bitterest conflict within
UK conservation. This insightful book sets out to examine and
expose the hidden issues surrounding UK moorland conservation,
giving a voice to the many people who work and live there and who
feel that what they have to say is often ignored, if it's even
heard at all. The fate of our uplands is in our hands, and it is
important that an alternative narrative, from the perspective of
the practitioners who have cared for these places for generations,
are considered. It may be that those with power chose to ignore
these facts and sweep them away, but at least now they cannot say
they didn't know.
