Beskrivelse
Roger Morgan-Grenville embarks on a remarkable 1,000-mile journey across Britain, following the arrival of spring. This walk is both a search for hope and a celebration of the natural world amid challenging times.
An inspiring trek through Britain’s changing landscapes in pursuit of spring and optimism.
Frustrated by constant negative news about biodiversity loss, renowned nature writer Roger Morgan-Grenville decides to walk the length of Britain, tracking the northward progression of spring at about 20 miles a day-the pace at which oak leaves unfurl.
Over eight weeks, he battles illness, harsh weather, and the limits of his own aging body while passing through every major habitat from Lymington to Cape Wrath. Along the way, he repeatedly encounters the generosity of strangers and witnesses the passionate efforts of people dedicated to protecting nature.
The journey reveals unexpected insights and delivers a story that is both uplifting and transformative.
