Their family farm in the Lake District hills was part of an ancient agricultural landscape a patchwork of crops and meadows, of pastures grazed with livestock, and hedgerows teeming with wildlife. And yet, by the time James inherited the farm, it was barely recognisable. The men and women had vanished from the fields the old stone barns had crumbled the skies had emptied of birds and their windblown song. English Pastoral is the story of an inheritance one that affects us all. It tells of how rural landscapes around the world were brought close to collapse, and the ageold rhythms of work, weather, community and wild things were lost. And yet this elegy from the northern fells is also a song of hope of how, guided by the past, one farmer began to salvage a tiny corner of England that was now his, doing his best to restore the life that had vanished and to leave a legacy for the future.
