Read this while on holiday in Scotland. Unbeknown to me I canoed past the cottage he lived in two weeks previously. I really enjoyed this getting back in touch with nature book. The realities of the living in remote Scotland and observing the wildlife around you in a way most people can not. It left me wanting to sample some of what Mike experienced. Thanks Mike I really enjoyed this and look forward to reading more of your work.
