Inhaltsangabe
Landscape provides a rich recording of our past. By focusing on one corner of England this book traces the changes which have shaped the countryside of Bedfordshire. The author uses the geology of Bedfordshire to describe a number of natural landscapes and then charts how these have been utilised in the past, giving us the countryside pattern which we see today. This book touches on agriculture both past and present; the extraction industries which have so heavily marked the landscape; the expansion of nature reserves; and finally the recent building on floodplains, and other threats to the green belt. For those wishing to find out more by walking in this interesting county there is an introduction to the opportunities for walking using the dense footpath network in Bedfordshire. Brian Kerr is a soil scientist who lives in Bedfordshire and is a Visiting Fellow at Cranfield University.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

He has published three books, the first two focusing on the shaping of the Bedfordshire landscape, and the second on the people who made the greatest impact. His third, 'How to Value a Skylark', debates current topics and controversies regarding decision making impacting the land across the UK. All are readable accounts, which will be of interest to anyone who enjoys being in the countryside. Brian previously worked as a consultant on agricultural projects worldwide and during the past decade has engaged in land projects in the UK, Ireland, Rwanda, and Tanzania. He presently holds a post as a Visiting Fellow at Cranfield University in Bedfordshire, UK.
