New insights into the changing human attitudes towards wild nature through the depiction of wolves in human culture and heritage.

"e;Entrancing...sparkles with lyrical imagery-Miriam Darlington, BBC Wildlife "e;Full of earthy realism, authentic observationand quiet lyricism"e; - Mark Cocker. Karen Lloyd takes us on a deeply personal journey around the 60 miles of coastline that make up 'nature's amphitheatre'. Embarking on a series of walks that take in beguiling landscapes and ever-changing seascapes, Karen tells the stories of the places, people, wildlife and history of Morecambe Bay. So we meet the Queen's Guide to the Sands, discover forgotten caves and islands that don't exist, and delight in the simple beauty of an oystercatcher winging its way across the ebbing tide. As we walk with Karen, she explores her own memories of the bay, making an unwitting pilgrimage through her own past and present, as well as that of the bay. The result is a singular and moving account of one of Britain's most alluring coastal areas.

A one-of-a-kind anthology of writing on the landscapes and nature of the North of England, edited by a leading nature writer and environmentalist.

In The Blackbird Diaries, Karen Lloyd shares her deep-rooted affection for all our treasured garden wildlife. Over the four seasons, she intimately chronicles the drama and the joy, the perils and the pleasures of the natural world as it all unfolds in her garden and on her daily walks in Cumbria's South Lakeland.
