Wonderful book! I've loaned my copy and can't get it back!
Windswept: Life, Nature & Deep Time in the Scottish Highlands, my debut book pub'd @WmCollinsBooks, shortl'd Richard Jefferies Award for nature writing, longl'd Saltire Book Awards for non-fiction, is available in paperback. It's a love story to place & filled with wild things.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.
Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.
