Synopsis
Published to accompany a BBC2 television series, this is an account, based on archive material and personal recollection, of how Britain's countryside used to be, and how it has altered during the last half-century. The chapters focus on various types of habitat, so that regions rather than specific places are observed. The regions are the Kent Weald, Cornwall, Shetland, the Yorkshire Dales, Wales, the Tweed, the Norfolk Broads, and the Cairngorms and Knoydart.
