Product Description
An illustrated tour of fifty of Britain's greatest woodland walks with specialist tree photographer and writer Archie Miles, published in association with the Woodland Trust. From beech woods, oak woods and pine woods to ancient forest, coastal woodland, ravine woodland and the very best arboreta, A Walk in the Woods ranges over twenty-five different topics and a wide geographical range, and includes encounters with some of Britain's most ancient and characterful trees. Complementing and crowning the series of nine regional woodland walking guides already published by Frances Lincoln, the book includes a Gazetteer with brief descriptive details and access information for the featured sites plus a shortlist of some of the best of the rest. The readable and deeply informed text describes the physical topography of each site, in context with the regional characteristics, incorporating information on vegetation, flora, wildlife habitats (with particular reference to rare, endangered or site specific species), as well as a wealth of social, cultural or industrial history. Spellbinding photographs taken throughout the seasons show the diverse interiors of the woodlands, with a range of views into and out of the woods, placing them in their landscape context. Also included are accompanying images of woodland details - fungi, flowers, wildlife, and historic features.

A real treasure trove of well written words about trees,

This review is from: A Walk in the Woods: Exploring Britain's Greatest Woodland (Hardcover)
A coffee table book that's very readable! Although it appears like a glossy gallery of photos, it's the words that make the book. The photos are great, don't get me wrong, but the writing is refreshing, interesting and fluid.

I expected a beautiful book from Archie Miles, as usual, but he has gone one further with his new book. It is stunning and makes me want to get out there and discover all the woodlands he has visited, for myself. A perfect Christmas present for all his fans.
