书籍简介

在阿富汗服役多年，并在伦敦的商界叱咤风云之后，梅林·汉伯里-特尼森和妻子莉齐回到了他位于康沃尔郡博德明荒原的童年农场。

卡比拉农场周围的林地曾一度荒废，过度放牧，如今却竟是英国仅存的几片古老大西洋雨林之一。这对夫妇努力克服各自的创伤——包括梅林的创伤后应激障碍和莉齐令人心碎的流产——并在山谷中苔藓覆盖的树木和潺潺溪流中找到了疗愈。

他们携手投身于恢复这片脆弱栖息地的行动，同时重建生活，并为一项大胆的愿景奠定基础：为子孙后代重新打造英国的雨林。《我们的橡木骨》是一部关于重生、自然疗愈力量以及我们保护赖以生存的土地的责任的回忆录。

After tours of Afghanistan and years in the boardrooms of London, Merlin Hanbury-Tenison and his wife Lizzie return to his childhood farm on Bodmin Moor, Cornwall.

Once neglected and overgrazed, the woodlands surrounding Cabilla turn out to be one of Britain’s last fragments of ancient Atlantic rainforest. As the couple wrestle with personal trauma—including Merlin’s PTSD and Lizzie’s heartbreaking miscarriages—they find healing in the valley’s moss-covered trees and rushing streams.

​Together, they take on the fight to restore this fragile habitat while rebuilding their lives and laying the groundwork for a bold vision: to rewild Britain’s rainforests for future generations. Our Oaken Bones is a memoir of renewal, nature’s healing power, and our responsibility to protect the land that sustains us.
