Sandy Walker stresses that "Campo" is about the land and the countryside of Spain, as it impacts on the visitor and resident. "This is not a book about gardening" she says, "it is designed to work as a practical guide, whilst also affording an insight into the nature of agricultural practice that has forged the character of the Mediterranean people''. Chapters cover the history, folklore, and mythology surrounding the land; its husbandry; the trees and shrubs which frame it; the rights of hunters; and not least, its bounty.
