Exploring the Quantock Hills with Chris Chapman

Describes the scenery, wildlife, villages and people which combine to make the Quantock Hills one of the unspoilt gems of the English countryside. Each chapter in this book looks at a different aspect of the region: its geology and landscape; its history from the Bronze Age to the present day; it collection of birds, diverse plants and animals, including the wild red deer; the villages; connections with writers and poets; and the working landscape, which links with the adjoining Brendon Hills. The six televised walks are described with details of parking places, veiwpoints and sketch maps.
