Trade Review'A heartfelt, necessary and very enjoyable book.'
Tristan Gooley, author of The Secret World of Weather
'A hymn of praise to darkness and the unfathomable wonder of a true night sky, this book is also an urgent call to arms. As Dani Robertson shows, our health, and that of the planet around us, is inextricably linked with the power of the dark. We are losing it at great speed, and to our great peril. Read the book, look up in awe, and act.'
Mike Parker, author of All the Wide Border
'Discreet, glowing insights throw gentle but piercing light onto what we are doing to what Dani Roberston calls one of the most endangered landscapes on Earth – the night sky'
Mary Colwell, author of Curlew Moon
'Woven through All Through the Night is a wonderful story of what natural darkness means to Dani. Her story is more than an anecdote, it's a powerful recounting of what is lost when the night burns like day, and the simple steps we can all take to reclaim natural darkness to benefit us all'
Ruskin Hartley, Executive Director at International Dark-Sky Association
'Passion and urgency lie beneath poetic and whimsically written passages'
Sky at Night Magazine
'Dani Robertson is a fine writer – lyrical and eloquent in extolling the beauty of our world – especially the dark starry sky … her book is more than a memoir; it’s filled with episodes enlivening her theme with history, science and topography, and with individual biographies. All through the Night is fascinating and inspiring – it deserves wide readership'
Lord Martin Rees
‘An utterly illuminating book that will open your eyes to an overlooked world in deep peril. Dani makes a compelling case for just how urgently we need to reform our relationship with darkness. Everyone interested in nature will find surprise, intrigue and awe on every page.’
Nicholas Gates, co-author of Orchard: A Year in England’s Eden
