THE OLD WAYS: A JOURNEY ON FOOT

The Top Ten bestselling book from one of Britain's finest nature writers - about paths, landscape and the human heart

Following the tracks, holloways, drove-roads and sea paths that form part of a vast ancient network of routes criss-crossing the British Isles, Robert Macfarlane discovers a lost Britain - a landscape of the feet and the mind, of pilgrimage and ritual, of stories and ghosts; above all, the places and journeys which inspire and live inside our imaginations.
