Sue says about The Wild Places: "I have loved all of Robert Macfarlane’s books but if I had to choose a favourite to take to a desert island this would be the one. From the highlan ds of Scotland to the holloways of Dorset via the beaches of Norfolk, the book explores the wild places, their importance and their fragility. " Are there any genuinely wild places left in Britain and Ireland? Or have we farmed and built ourselves out of wildness? From forest to moor, mountain to saltmarsh, Robert Macfarlane explores the wild places of Britain to see the wonders we still possess. In his bewitching and inspiring modern classic of nature writing, the acclaimed author of Underland and The Lost Words presents a portrait of a vanishing but still miraculous British landscape.
