Drawing on this lifetime of close observation, John Lister-Kaye's book encourages us to look again at the nature around us and to discover its wildness for ourselves. It also forges wonderful connections between the most unlikely subjects, from photosynthesis and the energy cycle to Norse mythology. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

This repetition means that his observations of the things he sees around him are sharp, and he picks up on subtle changes and other things that would be missed on irregular trips. When possible the walks are undertaken at dawn, which in this part of Scotland can be at 2.30am at the hight of summer.
I like his writing style; the detail that he packs in means that you are sharing the views, the ever changing weather and the unfolding lives of the creatures he encounters. Sadly he has the tendency to wander off subject a bit, not that it is all bad, but I preferred the wildlife journal. On balance good, may look at some of his other books. ( )
