Scattered across the Scottish Highlands are the last surviving remnants of the Caledonian Forest, naturally seeding and growing since the last ice age. Visiting these ancient woods provides an emotional connection to the past with visible traces of the people who lived and worked there over the centuries. There is also a chance to look forward, after one of the greatest conservation success stories means a new future for the pinewoods and their spectacular wildlife. This journey to the pinewoods introduces a natural wonder alongside a rich cultural heritage. Lavishly illustrated with many color photographs, maps, and drawings by wildlife artist Darren Rees.

Clifton Bain began his career in nature conservation with the RSPB in 1984, having graduated from the University of Aberdeen with an Honours Degree in Zoology. His work gave him the opportunity to study birds and their habitats across the UK and to engage in high level campaigning on climate change and biodiversity. Over the last 10 years he has worked with the IUCN UK Peatland Programme on environmental policy and advocacy to promote the conservation of peatlands. A native of Edinburgh, Clifton lives there with his wife and takes every opportunity to explore nature, particularly in the much-loved Scottish countryside. A keen hill walker and cyclist, he is a passionate believer that encouraging people to enjoy nature for themselves is one of the best tools for conserving wildlife.
