Description

A remarkable portrait of nature's cycle in one of Britain's most rugged landscapes is presented by Mike Tomkies. Through his photographs and story, he shares vivid details of the natural world, from exotic wild orchids to the territorial movements of foxes, otters and badgers. Mike Tomkies' extraordinary insights into the wildlife that inhabit this 300 square mile territory were gained through perseverance in the face of perilous hazards. He recounts his experiences, including treacherous terrain, harsh weather conditions and close calls with danger, as he studied the wilderness. This book is a celebration of nature at its most spectacular, revealing our urgent need to reconnect with natural rhythms if we are to regain health and sanity in a world bent on self-destruction.
