. . . . John Lewis-Stempel told Andrew Marr about his book 
'The Wood: the Life and Times of Cockshutt Wood'

After managing his Herefordshire wood for three years, John does not miss so much as one day visiting his wood.  This is his account of the trees, folklore, woodcraft, plants and animals he sees while working the wood, the only way to nurture the wild.  Listen to it here on 'Book of the Week'
