Bird books. So much like buses, nothing then two glorious double-deckers come along at once, one driven by @corbettlarks (12 Birds), and one by @dunnjons (The Glitter in the Green). Each, in its way, committed, soul-deep, readable, and very, very recommendable. #nature #birds

Remembering Peasants: A Personal History of a Vanished World

Patrick Joyce
John Lewis-StempelJohn Lewis-Stempel

Remembering Peasants is a work of salvage and salvation, a great rescuing of Europe’s earth-toilers from historical neglect and erasure... [Joyce's] prose is peat-rich, dense with feeling as well as fact.
