Short description

I changed the Short Description from British travel writer to British nature writer. After doing so I realized I should have posted here first, sorry about that. If anyone objects, please change it back. Macfarlane's writing goes far beyond travel, it explores the relationship between language and nature; natural phenomena; the use/misuse of natural environments, and environmental history, among other subjects.

Bibliography

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates for books and articles, as well as tables for organising short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
