The Book of Wildflowers by Christopher Stocks and Angie Lewin
£16.99
Illustrator Angie Lewin and author Christopher Stocks follow up the success of The Book of Pebbles with The Book of Wild Flowers, a celebration of British wild flowers and their place in the landscape.
Christopher Stocks explores their beguiling and sometimes peculiar history, and reveals some of the best places to see them, as well as the conditions in which they thrive. Designed in a similar format to The Book of Pebbles, it focuses on around 21 of Lewin’s favourite wild flowers, and includes reproductions of her paintings and illustrations, many of them created specially for the book.
The Book of Wild Flowers will appeal to anyone who loves British wild flowers, as well as fans of Angie Lewin, who is widely admired for her alluring images of the natural world.
