    Hilary Shipman Ltd; ISBN: 0948096071

    City Wildspace provides the first detailed guide to nature sites in urban areas of England, Scotland and Wales. It examines wildlife initiatives in Britain’s cities and charts the growth of urban wildlife groups into a national environmental movement. It looks at the confused – and often conflicting – policies of landscape architects, voluntary organisations and local and national government.
