Deep Country is Neil Ansell''s account of five years spent alone in a hillside cottage in Wales.
''I lived alone in this cottage for five years, summer and winter, with no transport, no phone. This is the story of those five years, where I lived and how I lived. It is the story of what it means to live in a place so remote that you may not see another soul for weeks on end. And it is the story of the hidden places that I came to call my own, and the wild creatures that became my society.''
Neil Ansell immerses himself in the rugged British landscape, exploring nature''s unspoilt wilderness and man''s relationship with it. Deep Country is a celebration of rural life and the perfect read for fans of Robert Macfarlane''s Landmarks, Helen Macdonald''s H is for Hawk orJames Rebanks'' A Shepherd''s Life.
