Alastair McIntosh is one of Scotland’s most eloquent and compelling voices on land reform, community regeneration and human ecology. His new book, Riders on the Storm, addresses climate change, its dangers and deniers.
Like all of his work, it is wise, compassionate and rigorous, and despite the enormous crisis it narrates, it is a book that offers readers a glimpse of hope — a hope rooted, as he puts it, in ‘soil, soul and society’.
In this event, Alastair will discuss his writing and his activism in conversation with Roxani Krystalli.
