书籍简介
从最早的起源到现在，这本屡获殊荣、文笔优美的书描述了英国农村不断变化的特点。
“经典。”——理查德·梅比(Richard Mabey)
在探索这片土地的自然和人为特征——田野、公路、灌木篱墙、沼泽、沼泽、河流、荒野、海岸、森林和森林牧场——的过程中，他令人难忘地展示了这些地方在过去几个世纪中是如何发展的。在此过程中，他涵盖了丰富的相关主题，对人、动物、植物、气候、土壤和其他物理条件在乡村形成过程中发挥作用的方式进行了引人入胜的描述，这些方式有时微妙，有时激进。
From its earliest origins to the present day, this award-winning, beautifully written book describes the endlessly changing character of Britain"s countryside.
"A classic" Richard Mabey
Exploring the natural and man-made features of the land - fields, highways, hedgerows, fens, marshes, rivers, heaths, coasts, woods and wood pastures - he shows conclusively and unforgettably how they have developed over the centuries. In doing so, he covers a wealth of related subjects to provide a fascinating account of the sometimes subtle and sometimes radical ways in which people, fauna, flora, climate, soils and other physical conditions have played their part in the shaping of the countryside.
