Feral: Searching for Enchantment on the Frontiers of Rewilding by George Monbiot

3.0

Not bad, but it would be better if the author were not an insufferable egomaniac with overly poetic pretentious. Then again, he got an UN award, and from Mandela too...

Anyway, my antipathy to Monbiot aside it is a very interesting perspective on the landscape and the role that reintroduction of wild animals can have. If anything I was mis-sold on the cover photo - I think it would be fascinating if there was a chapter on previously settled areas going wild too.
