The first son of a shepher, who was the first sone of a shepherd himself, James Rebanks's family has lived and worked in the Lake District of Northern England since before recorded history. James's way of life, ordered by the seasons and the work they demand, hasn't changed for hundreds of years. This is the story of a deep-rooted attachment to place, describing a way of life that is little noticed and yet has profoundly shaped the landscape over time.
