For millennia the ‘wild’ was a place heroic men
went on epic quests. In Wildly different, historian
Sarah Lonsdale traces the lives of five women who
fought for the right to work in, enjoy and help to
save the earth’s wild places.
We’ll meet Mina Hubbard, who outraged the exploration
community when she stepped into a canoe in northern
Labrador. Evelyn Cheesman, who became the first female
keeper of insects at London Zoo. Dorothy Pilley, who shocked
polite society by donning men’s climbing breeches.
Ethel Haythornthwaite, who helped make the Peak District
Britain’s first National Park. And Wangari Maathai, who started
a movement to plant millions of trees across sub-Saharan Africa.
Drawing on interviews with Sir David Attenborough, Wangari
Maathai’s daughter and others, Lonsdale recounts the women’s
adventures across five continents. Evocative and inspiring,
this book shows how women can be ‘wildly different’.
Join Rebecca Coxon from Kemps in conversation with
Sarah about these fascinating women.
