Some people hear a summons in a roadside bloom that others walk right past. Henry Salt answers the call of the wildflower, wandering from Sussex shingles to hidden corners in praise of the flowers no gardener planted. Lyrical, opinionated, and full of love for wild places. Heed the quiet call of the flowers growing where they please.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
