Praise for Waterlog:
'Simply wonderful... a delightfully eccentric masterpiece' Mail on Sunday
'Erudite and passionate, a total delight' Independent on Sunday
'Funny, wise and joyful, so wonderfully full of energy and life' Jane Gardam
From the walnut tree at his Suffolk home, Roger Deakin embarks upon a quest that takes him through Britain, across Europe, to Central Asia and Australia, in search of what lies behind man’s profound and enduring connection with wood and with trees. Meeting woodlanders of all kinds, he lives in shacks and cabins, builds hazel benders, and hunts bush-plums with aboriginal women.
At once autobiography, history, a traveller’s tale and a work of natural history, Wildwood is a lyrical and fiercely intimate evocation of the spirit of trees: in nature, in our souls, in our culture, and in our lives.

Meeting woodlanders of all kinds, he lives in shacks and cabins, builds hazel benders, and hunts bush plums with aboriginal women. At once autobiography, history, a traveller's tale and a work of natural history, Wildwood is a lyrical and fiercely intimate evocation of the spirit of trees, in nature, in our souls, in our culture, and in our lives. Roger Deakin (1943-2006), kept notebooks in which he wrote his daily thoughts, impressions, feelings and observations. Discursive, personal and often impassioned, they reveal the way he saw the world, whether it be observing the teeming ecosystem that was Walnut Tree Farm, thinking about the wider environment, walking in his fields, on Mellis Common or on his travels at home, or contemplating his past and his present life. Quite a scarce book, even in this compromised condition!. Nº de ref. del artículo: 011504
