The coast is our compass: a pilgrimage along the world's longest coastal path
by Martyn Howe
On the shelf? Just pop in.
Why do we walk? Why do we like to be beside the sea? And what happens when you infuse these questions into a journey around the coast of England - a pilgrimage in search of art, culture, community and glorious natural wealth along the world's longest managed coastal path? Extending well beyond the confines of a walking memoir, this work addresses all this and more. Getting outdoors, hiking the littoral boundaries of a nation along the King Charles III England Coast Path, author Martyn Howe encounters diverse landscapes and communities, and learns much about England's environment and the social challenges that will influence our future.
