Reviews

This is a fine and tightly argued book about the transformation of the liminal edges of land and sea. The climate crisis will bring new challenges with rising seas, yet the east coast has long been a site for storm surge and raised sea walls, for deliberate breach and realignment. Such changes exemplify inner shifts too – how we think about nature, how we might seek to influence or stand back. * Professor Jules Pretty OBE, author of This Luminous Coast (2011) and The East Country (2017) *
