Most of my fave nature writers are British as I am British. Robbie Cowen's book Common Ground is a big fave and anything Richard Mabey writes is worth reading. Nature Cure deals specifically with how he dealt with a bad episode of depression. Gilbert White's Natural History of Selborne invented the whole concept of nature writing and is still an amazing read. (Selborne is not too far from where I live which helps). For something more scientific Honeybee Democracy is fascinating.
In terms of American writing Thoreau, Emerson and Leopold obviously and I love One Man's Wilderness too. Even some of Jack Kerouac's less well known books like Lonesome Traveller can be great.
I really want to get into nature writing from other parts of the world but I don't know where to start. Any recommendations?
