Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Shortlisted for the James Cropper Wainwright Prize 2022 for Nature Writing - Highly Commended Winner of the Richard Jeffries Award 2021 'Its ever so good. Political, passionate & personal.'Robert Macfarlane (via Twitter) 'I couldnt put it down! A must read!'Dara McAnulty (via Twitter), author of The Diary of a Young Naturalist 'An evocative and inspiring memoir.' Claire Fuller, author ofUnsettled Groundand winner of Costa Novel Award 2021 Part nature writing, part memoir,On Gallows Downis an essential, unforgettable read for fans of Helen Macdonald, Melissa Harrison and Isabella Tree. On Gallows Downis a powerful, personal story shaped by a landscape deeply loved; one that ripples and undulates with protest, change, hope and the search for home. From the girl catching the eye of the peace women of Greenham Common to the young woman protesting the loss of ancient and beloved trees, and as a mother raising a family in tied and tenanted farm cottages on grand, country estates, this is the story of how Nicola came to write as a means of protest. Of how she discovered the rich seam of resistance that runs through Newburys people from the English Civil War to the Swing Riots and the battle against the Newbury Bypass, the hope she finds in the rewilding of Greenham Common after the military left, and the stories told by the landscapes of Watership Down, the gibbet perched high on Gallows Down and Highclere Castle. Nature is indelibly linked to belonging for Nicola. She charts her story through the walks she takes with her children across the chalk hills of the North Wessex Downs, through the song of the nightingale and the red kites, fieldfares, skylarks and lapwings that accompany her; the badger cubs she watches at night; the velvety mole she discovers in her garden and the cuckoo, whose return she awaits. On Gallows Downis about how Nicola came to realise that it is she who can decide where she belongs, for home is a place in nature and imagination, which must be protected through words and actions. We are writing for our very lives and for those wild lives we share this one, lonely planet with. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR011779248
