The Times and Irish Independent: BEST NATURE BOOKS OF THE YEAR
 
Ponds: small bodies of water, both naturally formed and artificial, home to wondrous, multitudinous life-forms.
 
Ponds define our childhood: frogspawn, goldfish, feeding the ducks, but also our village life, our farms, our landscape. And they are multi-layered - from carp circling the bottom to water boatmen, coot, and birds dragonflies overhead.
 
In Still Water, John immerses himself in the murky depths, both literarily and figuratively, to explore the still waters of the British countryside through each month of the year.
