Homeland

Out Of Print ... This Wales in which we dwell, its mountains high, its history ample and complicated, its natural history still bountiful, just. This collection of essays, by a range of writers connected with the BBC Wales series 'Homeland', takes this great small country as its theme. It is a country small enough to hold out the promise of being understood, whilst constantly offering discoveries around every corner. This book considers the changes in farming, almost as big as the geological convulsions which created the farmed and the unfarmed land in the first place. It looks at our image, our incomers, our neighbours and ourselves, with good humour but an ability to get under the (sometimes thin) skin. It is a verbal celebration and consideration of a land with two main languages, huddled under an acid rain that falls, and surrounded by seas both magical and polluted. A land which is home-treasured, sustaining and challenging-to so many of us. This Homeland. Our Wales.
