Author Notes
Strange Harvests : The Hidden Histories of Seven Natural Objects
Edward Posnett was born in London. After a spell working in financial services, he started writing about nature, markets, and trade. His fascination with the Icelandic tradition of eiderdown harvesting led him to write "Eiderdown," winner of the Bodley Head/Financial Times Essay Prize, and sparked this first book. He lives in Philadelphia.
