Tom Bowser – Waters of Life: Fighting for Scotland’s Beavers

We are delighted to announce we will be welcoming nature writer, journalist and wildlife guide Tom Bowser to Bookpoint, where he will be discussing his wonderful new book “Waters of Life : Fighting for Scotland’s Beavers”!

In November 2021, in a major moment in Scotland’s history, a family of beavers was spared a death sentence and relocated to a Perthshire farm. Their arrival at Argaty, Tom Bowser’s home, paved the way for a new era in human–beaver relations. In this deeply personal account, Tom tells of his attempts to save these incredible animals, of the support and opposition received and of the unimaginable gains that beavers ultimately brought to his home.

A fascinating and important insight into Scottish rewilding and nature conservation, “Waters of Life” is a triumphant beacon of hope, ecological restoration and most importantly, a celebration of Scotland’s incredible wildlife – we hope to see you there for an inspiring evening!
