The Trespasser's Companion is a short, celebratory and urgent book about the land and our access to it.
It is a call to adventure, a love letter to nature and, because in England we are excluded from 94% of the land, a gently seditious guide to trespass. With brilliant immediacy Nick Hayes shows how we can reclaim our lost connection to the land. From how to play in nature to how to leave no trace, this is an inspiring handbook to take out in your pocket. The book also features a host of passionate and expert environmental contributors including Robert Macfarlane and Guy Shrubsole.
This Companion echoes the travel guides of yesteryear with beautiful woodcuts integrated throughout. This is a beautiful nature giftbook with a very modern edge.

An urgent reminder of how little of England's landscapes and waterways are free to roam and a valuable guide to what we can do to help change this situation. Access rights are needed now. The Trespasser's Companion is a delightful frame to support the struggle for land reform. Let us wander in the natural places of this country of ours. We will be all the better for it.
Dr James Canton, author of The Oak Papers
The Trespasser's Companion is many things at once: it is a how-to guide; a spell book; a call to arms. Most urgently, though, it is a reimagining of how we might live, showing how we can share more equally in all that our land has to offer while caring for that land more ardently
Kerri Andrews, author of Wanderers: A History of Women Walking
The countryside ought to be for everyone, and this beautiful, thoughtful companion can help us all start to forge paths into the forgotten corners of our green, pleasant and often inaccessible land.
Catrina Davies, author of Homesick
