Description

Spring's transformation is a wild and elemental beauty. As the Northern hemisphere tilts towards the sun, winter yields to intensifying light and warmth, transforming the Highland landscape and a repertoire of islands from Colonsay to Lindisfarne. Jim Crumley chronicles this wonder, tumult, and spectacle, but also reveals the impact of global warming on the lives of badger, fox, seal, seabird, raptor, pine marten, and sand martin. A more daring conservation vision is urgently needed, embracing everything from mountain treelines to a second spring for the wolf. Crumley's lyrical prose elevates his detailed descriptions of the natural world he encounters, transporting readers to this immersive outing.
