The book delves into the historical efforts of Charles Rothschild, who envisioned a network of national nature reserves in Britain to protect wildlife habitats. Co-authored by his daughter, Miriam Rothschild, and a respected natural history writer, it examines the selection process for these reserves and provides a comparison of 182 English sites, highlighting significant changes in their ecological status over the past eighty years. The findings reveal a concerning decline in many areas, underscoring the ongoing challenges in nature conservation.
