White Light White Peak

Hardback | English

By (author): Simon Corble

White Light White Peak is a year-long journey of my encounters, through a very special landscape. It is the pale, Carboniferous limestone of the southern half of the Peak District which gives us the name, White Peak. Formed around three hundred million years ago in a tropical ocean, it makes up the bulk of the high plateau on which sit our scattering of small villages, some nestled into the shelter of the Derbyshire Dales. The dales themselves were carved over mere millennia by huge quantities of melt-water, as the last Ice Age came to a close. In these halfhidden gorges, the rock can be seen in our most dramatic features, towering crags, caves and fissures, creating dark impressions in the vertical limestone faces. A joyous book - one to be slowly savoured. The black and white photos are truly atmospheric, the snippets of prose down-to-earth and gently humorous, while the poems are a wonderful celebration of nature. Simon Corble produces a little bit of magic in White Light White Peak, capturing the ethereal beauty of England's first national park. This is a book to keep and cherish.
