PRE-ORDER - A String of Pearls

Wilson, Margaret (Ed.)
£20.00

The Lake District's awe-inspiring fells, crashing
waterfalls and dramatic still waters have inspired
writers for centuries.
Famous poets such as Wordsworth and Simon
Armitage, bestseller authors such as Ian McEwan
and Bill Bryson, and modern thriller writers such
as Val McDermid, have all drawn on the setting.
In this lavishly illustrated anthology, Margaret
Wilson has selected the best Lake District
literary extracts, each paired with a specially
commissioned, stunning local landscape from
photographer Helen Shaw.

Authors in the anthology include:
Richard Adams, Bill Bryson, Beatrix Potter,
William Wordsworth, Val McDermid,
Hugh Walpole, Patricia Nolan, Simon Armitage,
Margaret Forster, Alfred Wainwright, Hunter
Davies, James Rebanks, Norman Nicholson,
Melvyn Bragg, S.T. Coleridge, Charles Dickens and more.
