Nature Writing
Jim Crumley, author of over 40 books on Scottish wildlife and landscape, has won numerous awards for his nature writing, including the Wainwright Prize for Nature Writing and a Scottish National Book Award. His book Seasons of Storm and Wonder was, he writes: ‘…conceived in a moment of beauty…[at] a bend in the road above Loch Garry.’ Kathleen Jamie has said of him: ‘Scotland flows into him, and he breathes it out.’
Patrick Galbraith was born and lived most of his younger years in Edinburgh and now lives in London where he works as a writer, journalist and editor. His interest lies in the natural world, and In Search of One Last Song recounts the journey he took around Britain seeking out our disappearing birds, talking to those trying to save them, meanwhile taking in the folklore, history, art and literature in which birds play a crucial part.
