Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. This book showcases the natural history and landscape of the Fens, an area now responsible for a third of Britains food production and worth over 3 billion to the economy every year. It describes the geology and geography across the Fenland Basin over the last 14,000 years, a period dominated by the flux of wetlands and movement of water. The human relationship with this landscape is traced through history: from Mesolithic hunters to the prosperity of a medieval economy based on the currency of eels, through the taming and draining of the vast wetlands, to modern farming on an industrial scale.While recognising that only a fraction of the Fens is left, Fenland Nature celebrates the breadth of wildlife still to be found in the region, from vast flocks of visiting wildfowl in the winter months, to rare and specialised plants and insects all illustrated with detailed and evocative photographs.The book concludes by contemplating an uncertain future where there are possibilities for a sustainable agricultural industry alongside increasing biodiversity, requiring new ways of thinking and working with the land. The fenland landscape is a microcosm of the huge global challenges caused by habitat loss, ecological degradation and climate change. If solutions can be found to these complex issues in the Fens, then there is hope that these can also apply to similar places across the world. Through stunning images and insightful narrative, Fenland Nature celebrates the natural and cultural history of a unique, dynamic and dramatic human-made landscape. From vast flocks of visiting wildfowl, to rare and specialised plants and insects, from the Mesolithic to the present day with an eye on the future. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
