`[A] joyously readable book- it riffs along like breeze in the hedgerow.' John Lewis-Stempel in�Country Life`Hart's passion for the potential that resides here is intoxicating. Occasionally an environmental solution comes along that is so�breathtakingly simple you can't believe that not everyone is already doing it.'�Sunday Times`[Hart] has written an eye-opening and inspiring book which will leave you with a deep appreciation of these wonderful habitats'�Daily MailIn this joyous journey around the wild edges of Britain, Christopher Hart takes us through the life, ecology and history of the humble British hedge, showing us how this much-loved (but somewhat overlooked) feature is inextricably woven into our language, history and culture. Hedges - or hedgerows - have long been an integral part of the British landscape; a bastion of privacy for our gardens, a protective presence on winding country lanes and a vital hiding place for birds and beasts on farmland. This man-made marvel is finally getting its time in the sun. Recognised as an environmental hero and a powerful climate ally, hedgerow is now considered the greatest edge habitat on earth, offering thorny scrub, mature woodland, grassland and even wetland. It plays a critical role in carbon sequestration and provides essential protection against the elements. Hedgelands�highlights the hawthorn and hazel of ancient hedges; the abundance of wildlife, from the elusive dunnock to the striking nightingale, the industrious hedgehog to the little harvest mouse; and the free pickings that the hedgerow offers, making it an essential - and delicious - element of any countryside ramble. Hedgelands�will tell you everything you never thought you needed to know about this wild, diverse and rich habitat - and you might even look at your humble hedge in a whole new way. `Hedgelands�combines history, celebration, lament and warning. Christopher Hart is a companionable writer, and makes a powerful case that, at a time of ecological hazard, well-nurtured hedges can play an astonishing role in buttressing the future.'�The Spectator`A wonderful history of the threads that stitch the British countryside together.' Jake Fiennes, author of�Land Healer`A passionate celebration and exploration of our wonderful hedgerows. You'll be swept along by Hart's intoxicating enthusiasm.' Dave Goulson, author of�Silent Earth

Beautiful book!
Format: Kindle
What a wonderful book! I read this with my son and we loved the beautiful illustrations that depicted so many different people groups. Though we are in a season where I know of so many who are experiencing “church-hurt,” The Celebration Place gave a glimpse of at least one church where all are welcome and where people don’t have to leave their ethnicity, style, or even age at the door. The energy just leaps off the page and creates a genuine sense of celebration!

An Invitation to God's Future
Format: Hardcover
I loved this little book. It is wonderfully illustrated, faithful to the eschatological vision of unity in Christ, and invitational. While not all churches today are mulit-ethnic or multi-national, that's the future, when Jesus culminates his saving work. Why not live today in light of how things will be in eternity?

Beautiful depiction of diversity AND inclusion
Format: Hardcover
This book is very inspiring and hopeful. As a person of color I love seeing the possibility of what church can look like if we welcomed and celebrated peoples’ uniquenesses. The illustrations are beautiful and there is so much joy in the words, and I’m excited for my child to grow up seeing this as the “norm”.
