The sacred combe : a search for humanity's heartland
Barnes, Simon2016
Book
Simon Barnes is, without question, one of our finest natural history writers. 'The Sacred Combe' is the story of his relationship with the great imagined special place, and with the real Valley, where he awoke on his first night in camp to find elephants consuming the roof of his hut as a light snack. It is about our abiding longing for a wilder, less civilised life, and about finding it, and living it. It is about every person's relationship with the wild world, with all non-human life.
