New Naturalist 118. A complete natural history and the first large-scale survey of this unique part of the country. The borderland between England and Wales has long been a region of contention. Its distinctive geography, wedged roughly between Welsh mountains and English river beds has not only isolated this rural, sparsely-populated slice of land, but created a unique identity. Made up of a mixture of mountains and moorlands, farms and wooded river valleys, the natural history of the region is inextricably linked to the activities of man across many thousands of years Andrew Allott brings together a wealth of material in the latest New Naturalist volume, much of which is published here for the first time.
Presenting the first large-scale survey of this unique part of the country, he offers a complete natural history of the area, covering the hills, fossils, ice ages, meres, mosses, forests, streams and rivers, whilst also focusing on man's impact on the region, the changing wildlife, the impact of agriculture and the consequences of past and present industrial action. Also available in paperback [stock id 34388].
