Book Description
An inspirational, visually stunning and definitive guide to British wildlife
Product Description
The Nature of Britain is another landmark primetime series brought to us by the formidable Natural History Unit. In each programme Alan turns wildlife detective, taking us on a journey of discovery through eight different British natural habitats and their unique flora and fauna, week by week piecing together the jigsaw that makes up our homeland.
Tying in with the series, The Nature of Britain is an inspirational, practical and definitive guide to British wildlife. Written by Alan, the book offers the reader a closer look at the animals and plants of Britain's landscape, following the structure of the series with chapters ranging from Mountains, Lakes, Forests and Seashores to Urban Landscapes.
The Nature of Britain paints a beautiful contemporary portrait of Britains wildlife, and features fascinating essays on each habitat, followed by identification guides to the species that can be found in each one. It will be visually stunning, illustrated with over 900 breathtaking images.

As a celebration of our wildlife, this book is a triumph,
By
This review is from: The Nature of Britain (Hardcover)
I was given this book as a present for Christmas by my family. Within the last year, I have developed a true love of nature, so this seemed like the perfect gift. To be honest, looking at the Amazon page, I am quite surprised that THE NATURE OF BRITAIN has received such mixed reviews. One has said that the book is not definitive - well, perhaps this is the case, but it is meant to be a celebration of our landscape and our wildlife, and in this sense it is a triumph.
The book is divided into different sections covering different habitats; woodland, coast and islands, fields and meadows etc. Similar to the BBC series which accompanies this book, there are glorious colour photographs to bring to life what is being described. As a book which can be enjoyed by people with all levels of knowledge about the British Isles and its flora and fauna, I think this is a great book to admire and to ignite passion for the subject. Do not treat this as the definitive guide to what is to be found within our great countries; treat it as a way of opening up the natural world that is around you. Hopefully it shall then inspire you to go off and experience more.

Good but there is a better book,
By Natureboy (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Nature of Britain (Hardcover)
I enjoy Alan Titchmarsh and this is a very good book if you want something to fill your coffee table. However, if you want to learn about Britain's flora and fauna whilst being entertained at the same time you'd be better off going somewhere like the excellent The Armchair Naturalist by Johnson P Johnson.

Really good book, I purchased this for my son, as we already had it and he was wanting it. Not wanting to give him ours, I ordered one for him. I can recommend it, it is full of information.
