About the Author:
Richard Mabey is a prize-winning writer and botanist, described by The Times as 'Britain's greatest living nature writer'. Brought up in the Chilterns, he now lives in Norfolk where he and his partner, Polly, have created a complex garden with elements ranging from a walled vegetable plot to a Mediterranean garrigue and a self-sown oakwood. Highly praised for his poetic style and challenging ideas, he writes a monthly column for BBC Wildlife magazine and is the author of several books on nature and food, including the bestselling Food for Free, a book which has never been out of print, and the hugely successful Flora Britannica: The Definitive New Guide to Britain's Wild Flowers.
Review:
"A golden evocation of flora and fauna, places, people and perspectives." -- Susan Hill The Lady "Getting hold of Brush With Nature in early March was like being given an unseasonable spell of warm weather in which everything in the natural world suddenly bursts into life ... Each [essay] feels like an outing, a trip with a supremely knowledgeable yet unpompous guide to somewhere new and fascinating." -- Michael McCarthy The Independent "Mabey's head is filled with the sights and sounds of exploration but also with the background hum of politics, science, poetry and prose, social history and the experiences of other amateur and professional ramblers. In these essays, Mabey is generous and inclusive, the mark of a rounded writer and man." The Times
