Winner of the Marsh Book of the Year Award (2015) Throughout
British history rivers have been of profound economic, social and
cultural importance - yet as we see with increasing frequency they
have the potential to wreak great destruction. This book describes
the natural and not-so-natural changes that have affected British
rivers since the last ice age and looks at the many plants and
animals that live along, above and within them. Detailed case
studies of the Meon, Dee and Endrick illustrate the incredibly
varied nature of our river ecosystems, and the natural and human
factors that make each one different. Written by two widely
respected river ecologists, the book looks not only at rivers as
they were and are but also at how they can be managed and cared
for. Full of interesting facts and stunning images, Rivers is
essential reading for anyone professionally involved in rivers and
for the naturalist, conservationist and layman alike. It is the one
book you need to understand this singularly important and often
contentious feature of the British landscape.
