A Year in the Life of the Langdale Valleys

Více o knize

Probably the best known and best loved of all Lakeland valleys is here caught through the seasons in a series of stunning photographs by the noted climber, photographer and writer Bill Birkett. Over a hundred images, ranging from the grandeur of the great mountains surrounding the valley through the more mundane activities of the local farmers to the details of the spectacular prehistoric carvings and artefacts which are still extant, trace and record the subtle interplay of man and nature which characterise the peculiar beauty of the Lake District. As with last year's extraordinarily successful A Year in the Life of Richmond Park, the work of a first class photographer augmented by a well informed text will make an irresistible gift book for the many millions who know and love the area.
