Tracked 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 \u003cem\u003eLone Wolf\u003c\/em\u003e, 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\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePRAISE FOR ADAM WEYMOUTH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'A really outstanding new contemporary British voice' Andrew Holgate, Sunday Times\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'Adam Weymouth takes his place beside the great travel writers like Chatwin, Thubron, Leigh Fermor, in one bound' Susan Hill, DBE\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e'Dazzling' Kamila Shamsie\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House NZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46817461174508,"sku":"9781529151947","price":50.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/11941193482732.jpg?v=1757899466","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/products\/lone-wolf-by-adam-weymouth-9781529151947","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
