The Accidental Countryside by Stephen Moss
As per usual, I loved this Stephen Moss book. He bookends this adventure into the forgotten, damaged corners of our country with a look at the Peregrine.
From a creature symbolising wild places, it now can thrill us even in the largest city when it speeds by. Visiting post-industrial sites, working reservoirs, urban nature reserves and stumbling across such surprising biodiversity, Stephen’s awe reminds us that nature conservation is for all of us, everywhere.
