The landscapes of Britain have been shaped by hundreds of generations, moulding the countryside to fit with their own ideals, through the planting of hedgerows and wooded pastures. This type of scenery has been long in the making, with new additions and flourishes being added every century, yet in today's modern world it is rapidly being transplanted by concrete and tarmac. This absorbing new book unravels the history of these landscapes.
RICHARD MUIR has been involved in landscape writing for a quarter of a century. As a result of his work, Dr Muir has recently been awarded life membership of the Yorkshire Dales Society for his ‘outstanding contribution to the understanding of the Dales landscape’. He lives on the fringes of his native Nidderdale.
