520    "After years of expeditions all over the world, adventurer
       Alastair Humphreys spends a year exploring the detailed 
       local map around his home. Can this unassuming landscape, 
       marked by the glow of city lights and the hum of busy 
       roads, hold any surprises for the world traveller or 
       satisfy his wanderlust? Could a single map provide a 
       lifetime of exploration? Discovering more about the 
       natural world than in all his years in remote environments,
       he learns the value of truly getting to know his 
       neighbourhood. An ode to slowing down, Local is a 
       celebration of curiosity and time spent outdoors, as well 
       as a rallying cry to protect the wild places on our 
       doorstep." -- Back cover.
