Beyond Spring: Wanderings through Nature

Description:

Scarce. Beyond Spring traces a series of wanderings through the natural world of England from early spring to full fruition of summer. Some chapters journey through celebrated wildlife havens such as the Scilly Isles and the Norfolk Broads, or classic landscapes like Borrowdale and Dovedale. Others take shape in more unexpected places.

Interwoven throughout are vivid quotations from the Romantic poets, the great Victorian and Edwardian nature writers- Richard Jefferies, W. H. Hudson, and especially Edward Thomas as well as from several of today’s foremost nature poets.
