From celebrated writer Robert Macfarlane comes this brilliant, perspective-shifting new book.

At its heart is a single, transformative idea: that rivers are not mere matter for human use, but living beings – who should be recognized as such. Is A River Alive? takes the reader on an exhilarating exploration of the past, present and futures of this ancient, urgent concept.
