London: Penguin Books, 2013. Octavo, fine copy in dustwrapper.

In this book, George Monbiot, one of the world's most celebrated radical thinkers, follows his own hunger for new environmental experiences, in a riveting tale of possibility and travel with wildlife and wild people. Feral is the lyrical and gripping story of George Monbiot's efforts to re-engage with nature and discover a new way of living. He shows how, by restoring and rewilding our damaged ecosystems on land and at sea, we can bring wonder back into our lives. Making use of some remarkable scientific discoveries, this book lays out a new, positive environmentalism, in which nature is allowed to find its own way.
From the seas of north Wales, where he kayaks among feeding frenzies of dolphins and seabirds, to the forests of Eastern Europe, where lynx stalk and packs of wolves roam, George Monbiot shows how rewilding could repair the living planet, creating ecosystems in the UK as profuse and captivating as any around the world.
