The Hills of Wales

Shortlisted for the Stanford Dolman Travel Book of the Year at the Edward Stanfords Travel Writing Awards 2016.An appreciation of the hills of Wales; their character, the inherent quality of their landscapes, their resonance and histories.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 Llyn, and so many others. They are accounts of personal explorations, journeyings and encounters, each fragment and footstep combining to form a peripatetic literary celebration.
