Bringing Back the Beaver is farmer-turned-ecologist Derek Gow's inspirational and often riotously funny firsthand account of how the movement to rewild the British landscape with beavers has become the single most dramatic and subversive nature conservation act of the modern era. Since the early 1990s--in the face of outright opposition from government, landowning elites, and even some conservation professionals--Gow has imported, quarantined, and assisted the reestablishment of beavers in waterways across England and Scotland. In addition to detailing the ups and downs of rewilding beavers, Bringing Back the Beaver makes a passionate case as to why the return of one of nature's great problem solvers will be critical as part of a sustainable fix for flooding and future drought, whilst ensuring the creation of essential lifescapes that enable the broadest possible spectrum of Britain's wildlife to thrive.

"Tearing down fences literally and metaphorically, Birds, Beasts and Bedlam recounts the adventures of Britain's most colourful rewilder, Derek Gow. How he raised a sofa-loving wild boar piglet, transported a raging bison bull across the UK, got bitten by a Scottish wildcat and restored the ancient white stork to the Knepp Estate with Charlie Burell and Isabella Tree. After a Shetland ewe captured a young Derek's heart, he grew up to become a farmer with a passion for ancient breeds. But when he realised how many of our species were close to extinction, even on his own land, he tore up his traditional Devon farm and transformed it into a rewilding haven for beavers, water voles, lynx, wildcats, harvest mice and more. [This book] is the story of a rewilding maverick and his single-minded mission to save our wildlife."--Dust jacket flap

Depuis 1983, date de parution en France de " ENIGME SACREE ", Ouvrage fondamental sur le troublant mystère de Rennes-le-Château, le cercle considérable de ses lecteurs ne cesse de s'élargir. En prolongeant en quelque sorte l'enquête historique et les fascinantes investigations de Henry Lincoln et de ses co-auteurs, qui furent parmi les tout premiers à révéler au grand public une face occultée de l'histoire de France et de la civilisation judéo-chrétienne, Richard Andrews et Paul Schellenberger ouvrent ici une voie nouvelle à la faveur d'une lecture différente des parchemins de l'abbé Saunière, de recherches approfondies sur le message voilé de Nicolas Poussin et d'autres peintres méconnus des non-initiés, d'un décryptage très subtil de nombreux éléments du dossier où apparaît en filigrane une géométrie ésotérique existant à plusieurs niveaux. Lancés dans une véritable chasse au trésor, ils s'attachent à démontrer, selon une interprétation et des raisonnements qui leur sont propres, que la tombe ultime du Christ se trouve, selon toute vraisemblance, dans un lieu quasi inaccessible des Pyrénées, protégée par une immense conspiration du silence qui dure depuis maintenant deux mille ans.
