Underland: A Deep Time Journey (Paperback)

'Every book by Macfarlane since his first has felt less like a new start than the natural extension of a growing landscape. With Underland, it expands downwards to take in barrows, caves, tunnels and catacombs. The experience is, as always, exhilarating and a little terrifying.' - The Daily Telegraph

'There are some simply wonderful chapters here, combining natural and human history, a love of places and names…' - The Times

'Underland is an epic and occasionally portentous descent into a series of underground and underwater landscapes' - The Financial Times

'Macfarlane has invented a new kind of book, really a new genre entirely' - The Irish Times

'He is the great nature writer, and nature poet, of this generation' - The Wall Street Journal

'Macfarlane has shown how utterly beautiful a brilliantly written travel book can still be' - The Observer on The Old Ways

'Irradiated by a profound sense of wonder... Few books give such a sense of enchantment; it is a book to give to many, and to return to repeatedly' Independent onLandmarks 'It sets the imagination tingling...like reading a prose Odyssey sprinkled with imagist poems' - The Sunday Times on The Old Ways
