The View from the Hill by Christopher Somerville
During the enforced idleness of the Covid-19 pandemic, Christopher Somerville revisited the 450 notebooks whose pages contain the accumulated thoughts and experiences of a career spent exploring Britain on foot over four decades.
‘Somerville is a walker’s writerThe countryside has never been more inviting and this is the book to make you reach for your rambling shoes. It’s a profusion of delights!’ Nicholas Crane; ‘From the enforced hibernation of the lockdown year, Somerville turns his vision to forty years of wandering. With precision, clarity, depth and curiosity, these recollections lead us down the pathways of a lifetime.’ Nick Hunt, author of Outlandish: Walking Europe’s Unlikely Landscapes.
CHRISTOPHER SOMERVILLE is the walking correspondent of The Times. He is one of Britain’s most respected and prolific travel writers, with forty-two books, hundreds of newspaper articles and many TV and radio appearances to his name.
