From the WINNER OF THE WAINWRIGHT PRIZE FOR WRITING ON CONSERVATIONFrom the WINNER OF THE RICHARD JEFFERIES SOCIETYPRAISE FOR REBIRDING:'Splendid' --The Guardian'Visionary' --New StatesmanThis book reveals what nature can truly look like on our planet, in its most chaotic, unbridled forms. It takes you to wildernesses so improbable, so ancient, that you could scarcely invent them, and reveals what happens when ecosystems are allowed to function - and remarkable animals left alone to shape them.It will take you deep into the world's most raucous places; grasslands where cheetahs and hyenas still battle under starlight; waters, where rivers run solid with salmon, and jungles where shrews make friends with plants. It reveals places untouched, as yet, by man, in biomes that predate our existence by millions of years.Join naturalist Benedict MacDonald on a journey deep into places that remind us of what nature can be, how rich our planet once was, and how humans - at their best - can restore the great abundance of the world.
