Immerse yourself in a journey that traverses the rugged landscape of Scotland's west coast, where ancient forests meet windswept moors and majestic lochs await.
"The North Road", as Robert Macfarlane so aptly describes it, is an uncharted path that echoes with the whispers of history. This haunting exploration delves into the heart of time, place, and memory, tracing a winding route from the Firth of Forth to the Scottish Borders.
As you traverse this rugged terrain, the beauty of Scotland's natural world unfolds before your eyes: rolling hills, heather-covered moors, and glens that seem frozen in time. The road is strewn with artifacts of bygone eras – ancient standing stones, weathered wooden bridges, and abandoned farms – each one a testament to the region's rich cultural heritage.
This epic journey is not just about tracing roads or visiting landmarks; it's an immersive experience that will leave you spellbound. As Macfarlane so eloquently puts it, "The North Road" is a radical, beautiful, and brilliant odyssey that will stay with you long after the final mile has been crossed.
From the author of "Pilgrim", this book is not just a travelogue; it's an existential inquiry into our shared human experience. So why wait? Embark on The North Road today and discover the Scotland that lies hidden within its ancient, windswept landscape.
