Blending superb natural detail with evocative nature writing, John Lewis-Stempel's England: A natural history brings to life the wildlife and wild places of England in vivid colour. Discover the delicate flutter of dragonflies over clear streams, the quiet scurry of hedgehogs along rural lanes, and the hush of snowfall over high peaks. He evokes a country shaped by its habitats, the wild thyme on limestone hills, the bloom of bluebells in shaded woods, red deer beneath towering oaks, and rock pools teeming with life along the coast.

Perfect for fans of British nature books, rural history, and literary landscape writing, England is a must-have for readers who seek to reconnect with the natural rhythms of the countryside. A stunning celebration of the land that shaped a nation, written with Lewis-Stempel’s signature grace and insight.
