Description

Belloc walks hills and watches water, and turns landscape into thought: history underfoot, faith in the weather, the feel of place as something that steadies a life. Spoken as travel and meditation for anyone who wants the English outdoors as companion, not backdrop.

Author

Hilaire Belloc was an Anglo-French writer and historian. He was one of the most prolific writers in England during the early twentieth century. He was known as a writer, orator, poet, sailor, satirist, man of letters, soldier and political activist. His Catholic faith had a strong impact on his works. He was President of the Oxford Union and later MP for Salford from 1906 to 1910.
