Pastoral Song book cover

Pastoral Song

A Farmer's Journey

James Rebanks

Travel to the Lake District hills and experience the ancient agricultural landscape through the eyes of James Rebanks. Pastoral Song tells the story of James' inheritance and the collapse of rural landscapes around the world. This elegy from the northern fells is also a song of hope, a story of how one farmer began to salvage a tiny corner of England, restoring life that had vanished and leaving a legacy for the future. This book is about having love and pride in a place and how it's still possible to build a new pastoral - not a utopia, but somewhere decent for all of us.

😂 I was liking the sound of this, and my thumb began to swing toward the retweet, when I notice that I was the one who said it. This book is medicine.      fuente

A follow-up to the much-loved bestseller The Shepherd’s Life, English Pastoral recounts how Lakeland shepherd James Rebanks has, slowly, returned his 300 acre family smallholding to an older way of farming - both rewilding vast tracts and becoming more financially viable, whilst delighting - in beautiful billows of prose - in the return to his land of oyster-catchers, owls, falcons, dung-beetles, orchids and moles. An outrageously hopeful book. Again, LIFE WOULD BE BETTER if this was required reading in Parliament.      fuente
