  'Generous, moving and alive. A gift' - Tim Dee, author of Greenery
  'Intelligent, thought-provoking and always, always interesting' - Cal Flyn, author of Islands of Abandonment
  'Smyth writes with warmth and engaging perception about our relationship and understanding of the natural world on our doorsteps' - Jon Dunn, author of The Glitter in the Green
  'Fresh and tender and playful' - Patrick Galbraith, author of In Search of One Last Song
  Weren't they richer, rock pools, wasn't the seashore busier, when I was a kid?
  
  Richard Smyth had always been drawn to the natural world, but when he became a father he found a new joy and a new urgency in showing his kids the everyday wild things around them. As he and his children explore rockpools in Whitley Bay, or the woods and moors near his Yorkshire home, he imagines the world they might inhabit as they grow up.
  
  Through different objects discovered on their wanderings - a beech leaf, a jay feather, a limpetshell - Smyth examines his own past as well as that of the early natural historians, weaving together history, memoir, and environmentalism to form a new kind of nature writing: one that asks both what we have lost, and what we have yet to find.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  I was born in 1947 to a mother from Barnsley and a father from Essex. I have three great loves in my life: Barnsley FC, Yorkshire County Cricket Club and my wonderful wife. My wife is my rock; Yorkshire CCC are my summertime passion; the Super Reds break my heart year after year - but I wouldn't swap them for any other team in the world. I have tried to look at the world of business through the gaze of a mixture of reality, humour and, on occasions, sheer disbelief. Every word and every event documented is the absolute truth. If you enjoy reading this book half as much as I enjoyed writing it, then I will have achieved more than I could ever have hoped for.

  South West Scotland

  The lovely land of hills, moors and beaches is bounded by the Atlantic and the Solway. Steeped in history and legend, still unspoiled, it is a land whose peace and grandeur are at least comparable to the Highlands, and yet it is hardly known. No area of Scotland better repays exploration than this.
  From the Auld Kirk of Alloway where tales of Tam O'Shanter resound, to the legends of St Ninian at one of Scotland's earliest Christian sites, Whithorn, this region is lovingly described by a local author, who will explore with you the splendour of Culzean Castle and delights of Wanlockhead, Scotland's highest village.
