YORKSHIRE POST Magazine call The Hedgehog Handbook one of their "favourite books of the year." Lovely!

Great review from Steve Whitaker in The Yorkshire Times - "the real beauty of The Hedgehog Handbook, from an entirely selfish reviewer’s perspective, consists in Coulthard’s highly engaged, and engaging, yielding of natural description. A skilled hand directs the tiller: the writer’s experience – she is a best-selling author of outdoor living books – informs her stylistic direction. Her chronological approach is linear; a month-by-month unfolding of the narrative shadows a year in the life of an imagined hog."

One of my new books for 2018 is The Hedgehog Handbook - a month-by-month celebration of the hedgehog: packed with inspirational quotes, entertaining facts, folklore and literary references.

Great to see the cover of the Dutch co-edition of my fire book - Handboek vuurtje stoken: Sprokkelen, hakken, stapelen, aansteken

Thanks so much to intrepid explorer Scot Walker for the coolest pic EVER of my Little Book of Building Fires - taken right outside the British Antarctic Survey Base.
