Alfred Wainwright

    Alfred Wainwright è stato un cartografo e autore autodidatta il cui profondo amore per il Lake District ha alimentato la sua vasta opera. Le sue guide sono rinomate per le loro meticolose mappe disegnate a mano e le dettagliate osservazioni, nate da innumerevoli ore trascorse ad attraversare le colline. Gli scritti di Wainwright sono più che semplici strumenti di navigazione; sono testimonianze sincere della bellezza e della solitudine delle montagne. Il suo unico stile artistico e il suo intimo legame con il paesaggio offrono ai lettori un profondo apprezzamento per il mondo naturale.

    • Wainwright has selected 20 of Lakeland's principal fells which have the status of mountains and rather than describing a walk up, around and down each, his copy is more a celebration of each - he describes the particular attributes of each, the views from each top, and any outliers which have particular merit. Derry Brabb's photographs complement his text superbly.
