<p>Our ancestors developed a uniquely nature-focused society, centred on esteemed poets, seers, monks, healers and wise women who were deeply connected to the land. They used this connection to the cycles of the natural world ¿ from which we are increasingly dissociated ¿ as an animating force in their lives.</p><p> </p><p>In this illuminating new book, Manch¿Magan sets out on a journey, through bogs, across rivers and over mountains, to trace these ancestor¿s footsteps.

See the world in a new light in this magical exploration into the life-sustaining wisdom of what lies beneath us.</p><p> </p><p>¿We could do with a lot more characters like [Manch¿ dotted about this world.¿ <em><strong
