‘ Wildwood’ is about the element of wood, as it exists in nature, in our souls, in our culture & our lives.” So said Roger Deakin of this, his last book, that was published posthumously; a marvellous piece of natural history & cultural writing, it is an unmatched exploration of our relationship with trees. From the walnut tree at his Suffolk home, Roger Deakin embarks upon a quest that takes him through Britain, across Europe, to Central Asia & Australia, in search of what lies behind man’s profound & enduring connection with wood & with trees. Meeting woodlanders of all kinds, he lives in shacks & cabins, travels in search of the wild apple groves of Kazakhstan, goes coppicing in Suffolk, swims beneath the walnut trees of the Haut-Languedoc, & hunts bushplums with Aboriginal women in the outback.
