More about the book
The book explores the dramatic decline of the UK's rich grasslands, with over 97% of wildflower meadows lost since the 1930s due to agricultural practices. It highlights the impact of fertilizers, herbicides, and insecticides on the diverse flora and fauna that once thrived in these landscapes. Complementing this narrative, "Flora - ten years among the flowers of an endangered landscape" aims to preserve the beauty and essence of the flowers that once adorned the traditional meadows of the West Yorkshire Pennines.
