They live in our collective imagination as quiet places, best left pristine and untouched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut their story has always been one of interdependence with people. Now, as ever, these woods - including remnants of the primeval 'wildwood' - need the thoughtful intervention of humans to survive. With the benefit of over twenty years' experience rehabilitating ancient woodland - from the Lakes to the Peak District, by way of suburban London's hidden gems - Luke Barley brings us deep into this hidden world to reveal majestic oaks, freshly coppiced hazels, endangered limes, and the passionate individuals tending them for future generations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs modern woodlanders judiciously cut and fell, the flood of fresh light brings new life and hope to these irreplaceable natural jewels. With clear-sighted passion and lyrical prose, Barley reveals what we stand to gain, as individuals and as a society, by rekindling our ancient connection with these special places.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Luke Barley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55634893373825,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0429\/8116\/3166\/files\/9781805222231.jpg?v=1778145791","url":"https:\/\/bookshop.wigtownbookfestival.com\/products\/ancient-reviving-the-woods-that-made-britain","provider":"Wigtown Festival Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
