Traced by GPS, he travelled a thousand miles through the Alps, arriving four months later on the Lessinian plateau, north of Verona. There had been no wolves in northern Italy for a century, but here he crossed paths with a female wolf on a walkabout of her own. A decade later and there are more than a hundred wolves back in the area, the result of their remarkable meeting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn Lone Wolf, Weymouth walks Slavc's path, examining the changes facing these wild corners of Europe. Here, the call to rewild meets the urge to preserve culture; nationalism and globalisation pull apart; climate change is radically changing lives; and migrants, too, are on the move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a multifaceted account of a region caught in a moment of kaleidoscopic flux, from an award-winning writer with a uniquely perceptive eye for detail.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Adam Weymouth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57176734663029,"sku":"9781529158335","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/4075\/2426\/files\/9781529158335.jpg?v=1778663760","url":"https:\/\/sherlockandpages.com\/products\/lone-wolf-a-journey-into-the-wild-heart-of-the-alps-by-adam-weymouth-9781529158335","provider":"Sherlock \u0026 Pages","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
