Description
The Nature of Summer by Jim Crumley explores the world of Scotland's heartlands in the light of summer. In this enchanting account, seals sing, brown hares bound and dragonflies dance, while the author reveals the unfolding climate chaos. The book takes readers on a journey through the Highlands, St Kilda, and Arctic Norway, where everyday miracles are revealed amidst a world in crisis. As the seasons are pushed beyond nature's limits, Crumley's intimate portraits shed light on the impact of climate change. From declining puffin populations to the demise of entire glaciers, this is a story of both crisis and resilience. The Nature of Summer invites readers to consider what is at stake as our world continues to evolve. Through his observations, Crumley reveals the beauty and fragility of nature, and the importance of preserving it for future generations. This thought-provoking book is a timely exploration of the natural world and its place in our lives.
