Description
Native Life in a Vanishing Landscape
Patrick Laurie's deeply personal and thought-provoking exploration of his native Galloway, where he discovers the enduring impact of traditional farming practices on the land and its inhabitants.
As he delves into the world of the Riggit Galloway cattle, Laurie uncovers the loss of centuries-old traditions and the devastating consequences of industrial farming on the local environment and wildlife.
