Synopsis

Supported by a collection of work by eleven photographers, including Norman Parkinson, Patrick Lichfield and Barry Lategan this book documents regions of England where beauty is under attack. Each photographer depicts the region from a personal perspective showing how traditional hedgerows are being swept away in the creation of huge acri-prairies, picturesque river valleys desecrated by open-cast miningand our green spaces smothered by the accelerating encroachment of suburbia. These photographs are juxtaposed with early photographs from the CPRE's archives and the images complemented by a dramatic narrative of complex planning battles and hard won victories. The book invites the reader to seek out the visual poetry of our lansdscape and to recognize the desperate need for strategic rural planning.
