The lie of the land - an under-the-field guide to the British Isles
From the ancient rocks of north-west Scotland to St Michael's Mount off the coast of Cornwall, this book takes us on a journey through a fantastically exotic Britain of red desert sands, shattering continental collisions and tides of volcanic lava. Peeling back the countryside layer by layer, how Britain came to look the way it does is revealed as we are transported back through billions of years to a land that time forgot.
