Details
In 1985, Julian Evans fulfilled every forseter's ambition and bought his own wood with his wife and brother-in-law. This book is his personal story of how he acquired his own small mixed woodland in north Hampshire, and how he, and his friends and family cared for it using a mixture of modern and ancient skills. The observations are beautifully detailed, the stories engaging and the book is full of useful information for woodlanders and natural historians alike.

- both highly informative and a joy to read Review by Maddy Harland, editor Permaculture magazine

In 1985, Julian Evans fulfilled every forester's ambition and bought his own wood with his wife and brother-in-law. A Wood Of Our Own, is his personal story of how he acquired his own small mixed woodland in north Hampshire, how he, his family and friends care for it using ancient and modern skills, and the drama of two great storms. The observations are beautifully detailed, the stories are engaging and the book is full of useful information for woodlanders and natural historians alike. There is a magical atmosphere that runs throughout, a mixture of practical knowledge, anecdote and a passion for woodlands, enhanced by fine line drawings, that makes it both highly informative and a joy to read.
