Walking the Literary Landscape by Ian Hamilton
Walking the Literary Landscape by Ian Hamilton and Diane Roberts features 20 circular walks in northern England that explore the settings that inspired some of our great literature. Walk in the footsteps of writers like Arthur Ransome, Bram Stoker or the Brontesisters. Each walk includes directions, local information and Ordnance Survey maps.Ian Hamilton is a former journalist who worked on a number of local newspapers in Yorkshire and Lancashire. He peaked as a long distance walker at the age of 13 when he completed the Lyke Wake Walk in daylight hours, a feat he seems unlikely to repeat. Today he prefers shorter, less demanding expeditions, and is among the growing band of people who would like to keep the delights of the Trough of Bowland secret from the rest of the world. Ian is married to Ann and has three grown-up children.
Diane Roberts started serious walking while at university in Scotland and today combines her love of the outdoors with a passion for photography. She has an affinity for the landscapes that inspired our greatest writers – and the teashops that often spring up in their wake. Diane works for the civil service in Manchester and was previously part of the team that helped to bring the BBC to her native Salford. She lives with her partner Dave and their Italian greyhound Reggie.
