4.0 out of 5 stars That Patron Saint of Fellwalkers, 13 May 2004
This review is from: Pennine Journey (Paperback)
If anyone feels overworked or stressed out by the demands of modern life then this is the book is for you. It manages to encapsulate an altogether more gentle and innocent age in the readers mind. The author s preoccupied with the impending threat of war and uses his lonely tramp through the wildnerness of Northern England to escape the anxieties of the age. As the logbook of the journey was never originally intended to be published, it can make for uncomfortable reading at times, as if you were sneaking a look at someones diary. The deeply personal thoughts and observations of a man obviously far better aqquainted with nature than the human race are painfully honest, and you do feel slight embarrasment at the more whimsical moments. That said, only he can articulate his love of the hills in that unique style all of his own, and it is a peice of work that will inspire lovers of nature to follow in the great mans footsteps.
