Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

'A poignant, practical and moving story of how to fix our broken land, this should be conservation's salvation; this should be its future; this is a new hope' - Chris Packham

Winner of the Richard Jefferies Society / White Horse Book Shop Award for Nature Writing

In Wilding , Isabella Tree tells the story of the 'Knepp experiment', a pioneering rewilding project in West Sussex, using free-roaming grazing animals to create new habitats for wildlife.

Part gripping memoir, part fascinating account of the ecology of our countryside, Wilding is, above all, an inspiring story of hope.

Highly Commended by the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing

'One of the landmark ecological books of the decade' - The Sunday Times
