“The book speaks to our feelings about place more broadly. That is its deeper magic: in showing the essence of this small area of the world through lucid prose and stunning photographic images, Waterlands models what makes places meaningful more generally.” Kirsten E Shepherd, University of Oxford"It is beautiful. The photos and illustrations are phenomenal – they really bring the whole thing to life.” Hetty Saunders, author
