'Bracingly original' Kathryn Hughes, Guardian'A mixture of travelogue, local history and reportage, Swamp Songs brims with evocative word sketches' Times Literary Supplement
From Romney Marsh to the Danube Delta, from Cyprus to the bayous of Louisiana and on to the Bay of Bengal, Tom Blass crosses swamps, marshes and wetlands to meet the people who have made these in-between worlds their homes.
Here are true stories and myths of smugglers and runaway slaves, of fishermen, shepherds and salt-gatherers - and of tiger gods, flamingos and floods. A dazzling exploration of the precarious lives led where land and water tussle, Swamp Songs is a vital reappraisal and vibrant celebration of people and environments closely intertwined.

Zusammenfassung
TIMELY AND RELEVANT: The book highlights how precarious these particular ecosystems are, and reveals how a history of exploitation and drainage have left their populations, both human and animal, vulnerable. This will be of escalating relevance as readers continue to be concerned about the effects of climate change, and look for solutions.
