Wilding: How to Bring Wildlife Back – An Illustrated Guide is a stunningly beautiful gift book which tells the story of rewilding the Knepp Estate in West Sussex. It is illustrated in full colour with lino prints and watercolours by Angela Harding and photographs from the Knepp.
Knepp is now home to some of the rarest and most beautiful creatures in the UK, including nightingales, kingfishers, turtle doves and peregrine falcons, hazel dormice and harvest mice, scarce chaser dragonflies and purple emperor butterflies. The sheer abundance of life is staggering too. When you walk out into the scrubland on an early spring morning the sound of birdsong is so loud it feels like it’s vibrating in your lungs. This is the story of Knepp, and a guide telling you how to bring wildlife back where you live.
There are accessible in-garden activities to ‘re-wild’ your own spaces and the book encourages readers to slow down and observe the natural world around them, understand the connections between species and habitats, and the huge potential for life right on their doorstep.
