After years of expeditions all over the world, adventurer Alastair Humphreys spends a year exploring the small map around his own home. Can this unassuming landscape marked by the glow of city lights and hum of busy roads hold any surprises for the world traveller or slake his wanderlust? Could a single map provide a lifetime of exploration? Discovering more about nature and wildness 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 outdoors, as well as a rallying cry to protect the wild places on our doorstep.
