Overall, this book is an essential addition to the library of anyone who is interested in the Welsh or, indeed, British countryside. With its rich plethora of literary associations it sits proudly alongside his superlative and definitive account of Snowdon. - Richard Hartnup, Gwales

Blurb

The hills of Wales have haunted Jim Perrin for six decades. And they continue to do so still, inexhaustibly, always offering new perspectives, moods and experiences. This book records forays into both famed and forgotten upland taking in Cader Idris and the Carneddau, Corndon Hill and the Berwyn, Pumlumon Fawr and the little hills of Llŷn, and so many others. They are accounts of personal explorations, journeyings and encounters, each fragment and footstep combining to form a peripatetic literary celebration.
