Travel and nature writer Mike Bagshaw has lived in Yorkshire for over 25 years and in this, his unique guide to the area, he brings to life the landscapes and wildlife of the region and indulges his interests in crafts, architecture, local history, folklore and pubs. This personal guide - a book to be read as well as used - explores the nooks and crannies of this dramatic and diverse county and takes in all the well known sights as well as regional secrets, including fossil hunting, wild food foraging and the game of quoits. Hand-picked accommodation from Alastair Sawday ensures a comfortable stay, helping to get the most out of a 'slow' visit to one of Britain's most beautiful areas.
Mike Bagshaw is a freelance travel and nature writer with regular columns in various regional magazines and newspapers; he has lived and worked in North Yorkshire for more than 25 years.
