Product Description
Book Description
'Peak District Natural History Walks' is a practical guide featuring 18 walks that explore the living landscape of this beautiful area, and is the companion volume (by the author) to the popular 'Lake District Natural History Walks'.
This is the first comprehensive account of wildlife in the Peak District, involving a combination of information from geological sites and biological sites. Well-known areas can be seen in a new light but there are also more out-of-the-way places to discover, disused lead mines for example.
The 18 detailed walks include 'case notes' which focus on the plants and wild life you can expect to find in the Peak District, plus a gazetteer of the area’s best natural history sites. Presented in an accessible and entertaining form the book appeals equally to families, ramblers, or hill walkers of all ages, whose eyes will be trained to see the unexpected. It also offers much to those wishing a more educational or academic slant, including wildlife enthusiasts, teachers and field-study leaders.
The author, Christopher Mitchell is a field biologist with over 25 years’ experience leading outdoor study groups.
