A Year In The Country: Wyrd Explorations collects writing from the first decade of the A Year In The Country project, which has explored and documented the interconnected rise of interest in the wyrd, eerie and re-enchanted landscape, folk horror, the further reaches of folk music and the parallel worlds of hauntology. The book includes a selection of revised and at times extended writing from the first five A Year In The Country non-fiction books and the first ten years of posts on the project's website alongside previously unpublished work from the A Year In The Country archives. It reflects a personal journey through hidden pathways in the cultural undergrowth, a "wandering through spectral fields" that across 52 chapters includes writing on amongst many others the films, television series, directors, writers, books, musicians, record labels etc: The Wicker Man, Ghost Box Records, Vashti Bunyan, Broadcast, The Changes, The Radiophonic Workshop, Quatermass, Castles In Space, The Hare And The Moon, Excalibur, The Black Meadow, Penda's Fen, Howlround, Rob Young's Electric Eden...
