"The Lost Fens" is a history of the cultural landscape of the Lincolnshire and Cambridgeshire fenlands stretching from the Humber to Norfolk. The book draws together the story of a changing landscape, the lost cultures and ways of life, and the wildlife that has gone too. The final chapter closes on the new wet fenland landscapes that are now emerging and will present the future visions and challenges for this most evocative of landscapes. The book is profusely illustrated with maps, photographs, paintings, and extracts from historic documents.
