Embark on a mesmerising journey through Britain's aquatic landscapes with Angela Harding's exquisite new tome, 'Still Waters & Wild Waves'. This Waterstones' Best Nature Book of the Year 2024 showcases over 50 original illustrations, capturing the essence of dramatic seascapes and tranquil rivers. Complemented by stunning photographs of the locales that sparked Harding's creativity, this visual feast is a testament to the waters that stir our souls.

At the heart of this enchanting book lies Harding's well-travelled blue-green sketchbook, its weathered cover a map of her artistic odyssey. From the windswept Shetland Isles to the balmy Isles of Scilly, this faithful companion has weathered Scottish downpours, endured spilt coffees, and accompanied the artist on planes, ferries, trains, and bicycles. Its pages, brimming with scribbles and memories, chronicle still waters and wild waves alike, serving as the cornerstone of this remarkable publication.

Harding invites readers to accompany her on her aquatic adventures, presenting a captivating blend of paintings, prints, and intimate glimpses into her personal sketchbooks. This volume is not merely a collection of artwork; it's a joyous celebration of Britain's diverse waterways and the wildlife that inhabits them. Whether you're an art enthusiast or a nature aficionado, this book promises to be a treasured addition to your collection.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
