About this product
Product Information
A powerful and yet intimate celebration of trees and all they mean to us Wildwood is a remarkable celebration of the transforming magic of trees, exploring the 'fifth element' of wood as it exists in nature, in our souls, in our culture and our lives. 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, travels in search of the wild apple groves of Kazakhstan, goes coppicing in Suffolk, swims beneath the walnut trees of the Haut-Languedoc, and hunts bushplums with Aboriginal women in the outback.Product Identifiers

Superb, wonderful and compelling.
I had already read almost all of Robert Macfarlane's books and was delighted to find something equally absorbing by his friend Roger Deakin. (Roger in fact chose Robert as his Literary Executor). Thoroughly recommended to anyone who loves good literature about nature.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
