Hunter Davies records a year spent walking in the Lake District, recapturing the varied beauty of the land and the people he met along the way.
Special as much for its scenic beauty as for the literary and artistic creativity it has inspired, the lake District is one of the best known places in Britain - or is it? Hunter Davies walked among its mountains and valleys and rediscovered what he thought he knew welll. In A Walk Around the Lakes he retells his long and extraordinary journey, recapturing the varied beauty of the land and the people he met along the way. Using Wordsworth himself as a second narrative, he offers a complete and alluring appreciation of the Lake District and its great heritage past and present, whether you are walking or not.

His authorised biography of Wainwright appeared in 1995. He is married to the novelist and biographer Margaret Forster and they divide their time between London and their Lake District home in Loweswater.
