Seascape: Notes from a Changing Coastline

Matthew Yeomans

A timely exploration of Wales's coastline that challenges us to rethink our relationship with the sea and the future it holds.

Matthew Yeomans takes us on a journey along the Wales Coast Path, a stunning 870-mile (1400 km) stretch of coastline that offers much more than a breathtaking horizon. With an intimate understanding of Wales's rich mythology and culture, Yeomans uncovers how the sea has shaped the people and communities along its shores.

Seascape is not just a celebration of the past; it's also a call to action for the future. As climate change accelerates, Yeomans urges us to confront the harsh realities of coastal erosion and the shifting relationship between humans and the natural world. Only by reconnecting with Y Môr (the sea) can we hope to adapt and build a sustainable future.

A follow-up to his well-received book Return to My Trees, this new work dives deeper into the coastal environment, offering an urgent exploration of how the sea and climate change will continue to alter the world as we know it.
