Slightly better than very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper.
Nick Davidson follows in the footsteps of Adam Sedgwick, Roderick Murchison and Charles Lapworth, letting us see as if for the first time, some of the most intoxicating scenery in Britain, from the West Country to the Scottish Highlands. Drawing on wonderfully vivid diaries, letters, field notes and contemporary accounts, 'The Greywacke' is a momentous drama of discovery, and an irresistible celebrtion of our wild places. Black cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w illustrations. 280 pages including index. ISBN: 9781788163774. A lovely copy. White pictorial dustwrapper is slightly scuffed.
