Craftland with James Fox

Thrilled to welcome James Fox to the shop to celebrate the paperback launch of Craftland. Connect with Britain's extraordinary heritage and be awakened to the beauty all around you with the Sunday Times bestselling, soul-stirring journey to Craftland that reveals a richer, more meaningful way of living - by award-winning historian and broadcaster James Fox. SHORTLISTED FOR THE NERO NON-FICTION BOOK AWARD 2025 and SHORTLISTED FOR WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2025. For generations, what we made with our hands shaped who we were. The skills and knowledge passed down to us built our communities and defined our regions. And if you know where to look, they still do. In Craftland, James Fox seeks out Britain's last great craftspeople - those who are keeping our vanishing trades and traditions alive. Through them, we witness not only the living past but a deeper, more connected way of living today: one that is not yet lost and might still shape our future. This soul-stirring journey shows that Britain is still a craft land, if only we have eyes to see it. 'Brimming with fresh news and seasoned with hope. James Fox uncovers a largely hidden history which is still alive all around us today. 'Superb… I read the book with admiration not only for the remarkable subjects individually, but also the human spirit that unites them all' New Statesman' 'Beautiful, eye-opening and surprisingly moving - a treat to treasure' Lucy Worsley.
