In this follow-up to his Unique Life of a Ranger, in which he shared stories of his time on Blakeney Point, Ajay has chronicled ranger life at the Fen through the seasons, each with its own challenges and joys. Ajay will give an informal talk touching on a few stories and anecdotes, with the chance to pop out onto site, as well as to buy a copy of the book and get it signed.
