Resumen del Editor

A Field Guide to Larking is a practical, interactive and inspiring guide to larking from the best-selling author of Mudlarking.

To lark is to get out and about, to explore the world around us and to discover the little treasures hiding in plain sight. We think, of course, of mudlarking, but there is also beachlarking, fieldlarking or even simply exploring your own home with fresh eyes. In this field guide, Lara teaches us how to lark for ourselves. There are charts, tips and lists throughout to help identify finds. From tide tables for mudlarkers to a flint guide for fieldlarkers, this book is richly informative. Like a journal, it invites you to interact - to make notes and record finds along the way.

If Lara Maiklem's first book was a glimpse into a hidden world, with this field guide she shows us how we can discover it for ourselves.

A wide-eyed, warm-hearted discovery of history underfoot:)

Written and narrated by the author in the insatiably curious and charmingly romantic tradition of writers like Ivor Noël Hume, A Field Guide to Larking is wonderfully ordered, and well informed. Lara Maiklem champions not only the finds and their stewardship but of the lark’s role as ambassador of preservation. Her photos in the physical book and on social media are beautiful and an incredible accompanying resource.
