bookbestseller Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Upland: A Journey through Time and the Hills by Ian CroftonEnglish | 1 May 2025 | ISBN: 1780279132 | True EPUB | 304 pages | 3.6 MBThe relationship of people with hills and mountains has been complex, rich and varied - from awe and wonder to fear and loathing, from spiritual longing to peaceful acceptance.As he explores our high places, Ian Crofton conjures up those who have been there before: Neolithic axe-makers, mass trespassers, shepherds, quarrymen, botanists, poets and pioneering cragsmen and women among them. At the same time, he is ever attuned to the present moment - a flash of bright moss in a bog, the swoop of an eagle above a skyline, a winter sun sinking into a sea of cloud.Following an arc from the gentle Downs of southern England to the wild peaks of Scotland's far north, Upland combines personal experiences with a keen curiosity about the history and nature of mountain landscapes, and the people who once worked and wandered among them. The result is a meditation on the enduring yet ever-changing hills, on the transience of human experience, and on the shifts and twists of time itself.Locations included:Chilterns (following The Ridgeway)MalvernsSnowdonPeak DistrictPenninesLake DistrictBen NevisThe Cuillin, SkyeAssynt (Suilven)Cairngorms[b]Uploady[/b]https://uploady.io/0ivvglw1le67/9x5pd.7zRapidGatorhttps://rg.to/file/0c4cd9ea346fad10fccfe595fcb50555/9x5pd.7z.html[b]UploadCloud[/b]https://www.uploadcloud.pro/l5aaqfetjx4i/9x5pd.7z.htmlFikperhttps://fikper.com/eFi0uYALS1/9x5pd.7z.htmlFreeDLhttps://frdl.io/q66v2z0giilp/9x5pd.7z.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
