Beskrivelse af Walking the Bones of Britain
Travelling a thousand miles and across three billion years, Christopher Somerville, author of The January Man and Ships of Heaven, sets out to discover how the land beneath our feet shapes our past, our present and our future.These isles are blessed with a vast variety of landscapes - from marshes to slate mountains, chalk downs to volcanic islands. We are bedded, moulded and shaped by the most diverse geology in the world. Underneath our feet, beneath the grass and the tarmac, you will find drownings and upheavals, raging fires and frozen wastes, soaring mountains and deep gouged valleys. You will find the bones of Britain.Following the line of oldest exposed geology, from the Outer Hebrides to the furthest corner of Essex, Somerville records the landscape and brings its secrets to the surface. Lyrical and evocative, The Bones of Britain is a deep interrogation of the land we call home.
