A beautiful journey through the British countryside, drawn from The Guardian's beloved Country Diary.
With an introduction by Ian McMillan, and illustrations by Clifford Harper.
'Full of sparkle, wonder and surprise, here is the natural world in book form.' PATRICK BARKHAM
For over a century, The Guardian's Country Diary has published the nation's most celebrated writers of natural history as they capture the essence of the British countryside.
From Yorkshire to Belfast, Orkney to Cumbria, and Gwynedd to the Scottish Highlands, exquisitely written and softly observed snapshots emerge - of fishes lurking in dusky pools, of age-old trees beneath deep blue skies, of lives being lived alongside the ebbs and flows of the natural world.
Bringing together the finest contributions to the column from recent years, Under the Changing Skies is an essential companion for all those with a deep love for the British countryside, charting its subtle changes over the course of the seasons.
With contributions from Cal Flyn, Mark Cocker, Josie George, Nicola Chester, Lev Parikian, Amy-Jane Beer, Kate Bradbury, Andrea Meanwell and many others.
