For many generations Redbanks and his family have farmed an ancient breed of sheep, called Herdwick sheep, on the steep hillsides of England's Lake District. Their life and routines are dictated by the seasons and animal husbandry techniques that go back many hundreds (if not thousands) of years.

Part of only a few hundred families who farm the region, Redbanks broke the shepherds mould by attending Oxford, but he never escaped the lure of the fells. He farms his family's land while also running hugely popular Twitter and Instagram accounts, sharing this unique lifestyle and the stunning surrounds.

His writing is clear and simple as he sets out his seasons, and his days within each season, while also sharing the rich history of the landscape and the characters from it. Who even knew that wildly famous children's author Beatrix Potter was also a committed fells shepherd whose contribution to the region is what she is far more seriously noted for?

I loved it.
