Ireland needs to rekindle its lost love of nature, and Anja Murray's sparkling, accessible and often romantic personal account, with illustrations by Jane Carkill, is a very good place to start - Sunday Business Post

"In Wild Embrace, Anja Murray takes us on a fantastic adventure of rediscovery: of the fragments of wild nature that still exist all around and of the place within every one of us that yearns for reconnection with this hidden world. You rightly won't find any avoidance of the desperate state of Irish nature in this book. But hope for recovery is identified in the "three-legged stool of wonder, knowledge and action". In other words, by deeply engaging with the wild once more, learning a little of how ecosystems really work, and rolling up our sleeves to finally do what needs doing, nature can, and will, come roaring back. A hugely important, and simply delightful, book." - Eoghan Daltun
