Format:Hardcover
If you have ever enjoyed Iolo's programmes on BBC wales, or enjoy the outdoors and wildlife then this book is an absolute joy.
Iolo writes exceptionally well, taking us on a diary journey through his year, the animals he sees, his thoughts on the environment and then carrying that journey through the changing seasons of a year. Because of this it's one of those books that you can pick up and put down, reading small chunks if you wish, or just sitting back and enjoying the whole book from beginning to end
Frequently witty, but always a pleasure - I can't recommend this book highly enough!

A year in Wales(and other parts)was exactly the journey I was seeking. Iolo shares insights of his Wales and it's wildlife and makes you want to trace his steps and see for yourself.
Listmania!
