Home Country - Paperback

by Richard Mabey (Author), Andrew Motion (Introduction by), Paul Nash (Illustrator)

Home Country is Richard Mabey's memoir told on ridgeway and in beechwood, from the childhood dens built in the grounds of a derelict mansion and his dogged searches for lapwing nests, through his explorations in the fringes of outer London, to the rediscovery of his roots in the Chilterns when he became responsible for a 16-acre woodland of his own.
