I received these two books as a birthday present, and have enjoyed thumbing through them over the summer.
Holloway is a treasure of a book, not least because of Stanley Donwood's beautiful drawings.
The Old Ways is full of Robert Macfarlane's beautiful prose describing his walking adventures and musings.
" Ahead of me lay more days on foot, and the path insinuating eastwards - in the old and innocent sense of the verb, from the Latin insinuare, 'to bend in subtle windings, to curve'."
Robert Macfarlane
