About the book

Moving beyond the fells of his previous works, he traces the wild edges of Britain's shoreline, discovering communities shaped by tides, weather, and the rhythms of marine life. Through vivid observations and encounters with fishermen, conservationists, and coastal dwellers, Rebanks examines how these marginal places face unprecedented change. He reveals both the fragility of maritime ecosystems and the resilience of those who depend upon them, weaving together natural history, social commentary, and memoir into a compelling meditation on belonging and loss. This is essential reading for anyone drawn to Britain's coast and concerned about its future—a passionate argument for preserving not just landscapes, but the traditional ways of life that give them meaning.
