Since the early 1990s - in the face of outright opposition from government, landowning elites and even some conservation professionals - Derek Gow has imported, quarantined and assisted the reestablishment of beavers in waterways across England and Scotland. 'Bringing Back the Beaver' is farmer-turned-ecologist 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.
