Published by Bloomsbury in the UK and US and selected as a leading Mongabay Conservation Book of the Year Abundance: Nature in Recovery was long listed for the Wainwright Prize for writing on conservation. Journeying from the Lake District and Scotland to the Carpathian mountains ,the Prespa Lakes in Northern Greece and the Hungarian Steppe, Karen Lloyd goes in search of the places where people are restoring species and habitats, or where nature is returning in its own right. This is a book about hope for the human capacity to change – not only through our actions – but through the ways we choose to see and encounter the natural world around us. (Read the ten most notable books on conservation on Mongabay here).

‘The essays in Abundance are characterised by an admirable urgency. Lloyd’s voice is a voice for now.’ (Jim Crumley).

‘We live at a time when our writers need to challenge our apathy and call out our lack of ambition in restoring Britain’s nature. Very few are willing to do so, but in Abundance, Karen Lloyd opens up new pathways to a reimagined relationship with the wild.’ (Peter Cairns, Scotland the Big Picture).
