A Guide to the Lakes

Thomas West
£22.00

A modern edition of 'A Guide to the Lakes' by Thomas West.
Unspoilt. Unvisited. Until Thomas West wrote his guidebook, the Lake District was unknown and unloved. No poets came, no tourists toured and the average nymph or shepherd saw nothing worth a second look. Yet, before Wordsworth was born, one man was showing people the beauty of this wildernness - through a camera, no less!
