Islands In A Common Sea: Stories of Farming, Fishing and Food around the World by Jenny Jefferies, published by Meze Publishing – signed by the author
Donated by: Jenny Jeffries
Following her successful For The Love Of cookbook series, championing farming and fishing in the UK, award-winning author Jenny Jefferies has compiled a brand new, visually stunning, and globally relevant book to celebrate and share the stories of farmers and fishermen from all over the world.
Despite its global scale, the book is based on the author’s belief that there is more in the world that unites us than divides us, and the power of this unity in overcoming the challenges that currently face us all, from climate change to food.
From rural Bhutan to central Singapore, the wilds of Western Australia to paddy fields in Japan, and Argentine vineyards to Nigerian aquaculture, Islands in a Common Sea takes a deep dive into the everyday lives of 25 pioneering individuals who nurture their environment in the hopes of a regenerative, productive, and positive future.
This beautiful, coffee table, hardback book with remarkable photography, featuring stunning landscapes and captivating portraiture, is signed by the author Jenny Jeffries.
