This book features the paintings and drawings created by The Arborealists an informal group ofprofessional artists with an interest in painting trees and woodland in Lady Park, an ancient, seminaturalwood on the slopes and cliffs of the Wye Gorge on the borders of England and Wales.Uniquely, the wood, which has been left to grow naturally for up to 150 years, has been studied indetail since 1944 and the fortunes of hundreds of individual trees have been tracked for three-quartersof a century. The artworks are matched with a commentary by George Peterken, who has led theresearch since the 1980s.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A definitive natural history of the Wye Valley, from its appeal to the enthusiastic naturalist, to the geology, geomorphology, conservation and ecological history of this diverse area. The spectacular landscape of the Wye Valley region has attracted visitors for over 250 years. Designated one of the few lowland Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1971, it is dominated by the river Wye, which has done much to form this varied ecological landscape. George Peterken (who has lived in the region for many years and helped to draft the AONB's Nature Conservation Strategy in 1999), skillfully examines the diverse ecology, natural history, landscape and history of this district defined mainly by the extraordinary evolution of the river Wye into a meandering mature river. With little previously published on the area, Peterken also explores the results of recent conservation efforts in the region, recognising that despite the protection afforded to the 'outstanding natural beauty' of natural habitats and wild species, these regions have continued to suffer substantial losses. Peterken goes on to chart the many initiatives that continue to promote effective conservation within the AONB and surrounding areas. Perfect for the enthusiastic naturalist, New Naturalist Wye Valley unlocks the secrets of this beautiful natural area. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
