?An eloquent (and compulsively readable) reminder that, though
we?re laying waste the world, nature still holds sway over much of
the earth's surface.?
?Bill McKibben
Are there any genuinely wild places left in Britain and Ireland?
That is the question that Robert Macfarlane poses to himself as he
embarks on a series of breathtaking journeys through some of the
archipelago's most remarkable landscapes. He climbs, walks, and
swims by day and spends his nights sleeping on cliff-tops and in
ancient meadows and wildwoods. With elegance and passion he
entwines history, memory, and landscape in a bewitching evocation
of wildness and its vital importance. A unique travelogue that will
intrigue readers of natural history and adventure, "The Wild
Places" solidifies Macfarlane's reputation as a young writer to
watch.
