Críticas:
"A man with adventure in his soul and a talent for communicating his passion? Crane is something of a treasure." --The Daily Mail, on Mercator "The book is clearly the product of extensive research. It is also, however, the product of considerable imagination and insight, an intensive effort of sympathy by one geographer for another." --Robert MacFarlane, The Observer, on Mercator "Crane... is an engaging companion, whether on horseback, bike, foot, boat or car." --Wanderlust, on Great British Journeys
Reseña del editor:
This is the first book to be written by a Coast presenter in a narrative format and it will become the definitive guide to our coastline.
Nick Crane brings his geographer's eye and love of the British landscape to take us on an enthralling journey along our coastline. Both a celebration of and reference guide to the the coast, Nick draws on all the elements that have made the TV series such a success, from local history to national defence, forts and ports, fishermen and artists, sacred buildings and detailed cartography, as well as taking in iconic landmarks, seaside holidays and, of course, wildlife.
Nick's evocative prose and extensive knowledge infuse this book, which combined with two colour plate sections, make this an unmissable purchase for all fans of the British coast.
