Richard Jefferies Award

Richard Jefferies (1848-1887) is the purest and most sensitive nature writer produced by a country that has prided itself on the strength of its nature tradition. Jefferies died prematurely of tuberculosis, aged 38, yet produced an astonishingly rich and varied body of work. The Award is given, by The Richard Jefferies Society and sponsored by The White Horse Bookshop, to reflect the heritage, content and spirit of Jefferies’ countryside books.
