REVIEWS & ENDORSEMENTS “This is a wonderful book, visionary, illuminating and fascinating.” – George Monbiot
“[A] splendid new book... all rational argument seems to be on his side” – Tim Flannery, The Guardian
"A wonderfully imaginative book, which shows how things could be with our rapidly declining areas of countryside, instead of how - despairingly - they are now." – Rod Liddle, associate editor of The Spectator
"A visionary yet practical book." – John Burnside, New Statesman
“Ben Macdonald has an impressive track record as a field naturalist, wildlife film-maker and writer, and this passionate, authoritative, up-to-date and, ultimately, optimistic book is a worthy companion to such seminal works as George Monbiot's Feral and Mark Cocker's Our Place" – Jonathan Elphick, BBC Wildlife
“Having read a number of the recent books about rewilding, I was tempted to think 'Oh blimey, not another one!'. I am now tempted to say 'they left the best till last…” – Bill Oddie
“Rebirding is beautifully written, based on deep, personal experience and a genuine love of the subject. You may not have come across Ben Macdonald before now; but believe me, you will hear a lot more from him in the future.” – Stephen Moss “With Monbiot's Feral and Isabella Tree's Wilding, Rebirding sits separate from both and is in fact an essential third book to read if you've enjoyed the others. In short, it's a captivating, fascinating and inspiring read” – Ed Stubbs, Birdwatch Magazine
“A book about a key subject at a key time, passionate and deeply thought-through. Anyone concerned with the future of the natural world in Britain will want to read it.” – Mike McCarthy, author of ‘The Moth Snowstorm’
“A beautifully written, thoughtful and yes, provocative book” – Martin Harper, Conservation Director, RSPB
“A must read and a good read…the type of book that grabs and keeps my attention. You should read it and I think you may well enjoy it a lot.” – Mark Avery
“This is a stimulating and important book, beautifully written and well researched… It provides a compelling vision for the future” – Dr. Carl Jones, Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust
“I thoroughly recommend the book and applaud its breadth and detail... Macdonald's book has really surprised me. I have learned much I did not know about Britain's early bird faunas, and even the history of its mammals... The level of treatment and scholarly references are on a par with conservation science books” – Peter Taylor, ECOS Magazine
