Description
A new collection of vibrant essays to inform, stimulate and inspire every nature lover.
Times of darkness offer opportunities to reflect. In Mistletoe Winter, Roy Dennis offers his reflections on the natural world from the past year - from the welcome signs of change to the ongoing problems we are posing for nature, and what humankind can and must do about them.
As in his companion volume, Cottongrass Summer, Roy Dennis balances his alarm at the crisis confronting the natural world with his own sense of optimism that new generations can make crucial changes for the future. One of our most prominent advocates for our planet and its species, he writes with insight and originality. This volume will provide inspiration and ideas for everyone who cares about our planet and its species.
Outstanding, authoritative nature and wildlife writing from a world-renowned naturalist, on topics ranging from snow grouse to ptarmigans, wildcat to lynx; a compelling voice from one of our most experienced, outspoken lecturers and broadcasters advocating for wildlife; essays that sparkle with insight and originality, from a pioneer in European species reintroduction.
