Books By Alexandra Richards - Author

Alexandra Richards (alexandrarichards.net) lived in the tiny north Dorset village of Stour Provost until her mid-20s. Career and travel writing then took her elsewhere (notably Australia, for several years), but she has always kept a base in Dorset, never wanting to sever ties with the county. Spending time away has given her a new appreciation for - and (visitor's) perspective on - the area. Dorset's hold on Alex has only grown stronger with time and in 2019 she returned to live there full time, close to where she grew up. Alex has explored the Dorset countryside on horseback, on foot, by bicycle and by 4x4. She has a particular interest in natural history and conservation, and enjoys following the work of the Dorset Wildlife Trust. Having grown up in a farming community, she has a real appreciation for Dorset's local produce, which is some of the finest in the country.
