The English Path is Kim Taplin’s own journey of discovery along England’s footpaths, following novelists, poets and artists who walked the paths before her. Our new edition features an introduction by Mary-Ann Ochota, a foreword by Phoebe Taplin, Kim’s daughter, and a beautiful cover by Henrietta Hoyer Miller.

The Making of the English Landscape by W. G. Hoskins remains a ground-breaking book, sixty years after its first publication. Spotted an unusual ditch or holloway while out walking? Wondering how villages first acquired their greens on which cricket is now played? Curious about the design of churches? The Making of the English Landscape delves into these mysteries of our long-settled land and explains why it looks the way it does. With an introduction by William Boyd.

The poet Edward Thomas first made his living from writing books about the countryside – in The South Country he writes about how he stepped out from his Hampshire home, and found solace in the woodlands, fields and lanes, in a book that blends folklore, natural and landscape history, told through the seasons. With an introduction by Robert Macfarlane and a cover by David Inshaw.

If you would prefer to receive Glyn Hughes’ Millstone Grit, in which the writer walks fifty miles through the West Riding and East Lancashire, introduced by the novelist Benjamin Myers, rather than The South Country please add this request to the note section when you order.

All books are also available separately.
