10. Derek Gow at the Bridport Literary Festival (Monday 04 November 6pm)

The Lost Wolves in Britain and the Myths and Stories that Surround Them

In conversation with Sam Rose

Wolves were endemic to Britain around the time of the last Ice Age 10-12,000 years ago. Sightings in this country have long been restricted to cages at zoos and at wildlife parks. After raising two cubs in his home, Derek Gow became fascinated with the wolf.

With bitingly funny and tender stories, Hunt for the Shadow Wolf is his quest to reveal the true nature of this magnificent creature and, as a maverick re-wilder, his hope that we will see the return of the wolf in Britain.
