Showing Wainwright in Scotland by A. Wainwright

To accompany the major BBC television series, A Wainwright has written this exciting book which is, once again, gloriously illustrated with the stunning photographs of Derry Brabbs. Starting in the far north, Wainwright travels down the west coast, linking the highlights of the journey in a continuous route. He travels through Sutherland and Wester Ross, over to Skye and then returns to the Central Highlands. He then turns north again to Strath Spey and ends his travels in the Cairngorms. Wainwright draws on his years of experience of walking and exploring the Highlands, viewing all the mountains at close range, climbing many of them and compiling a series of pen-and-ink drawings, a number of which are included in this book. The modern traveller will be able to leave his car and follow many of the routes once trod by Britain's most famous walker.
