A personal journey across Britain’s countryside, the Guardian journalist sets out to see every one of Britain’s 59 species of native butterfly in a single summer. Interwoven with childhood memories, humorous anecdotes and conversations along the way with family, friends and butterfly loving strangers, this is nature writing at its best. And there remains the delectable cliff hanger: did he achieve his goal? Join Barkham to find out.
