36 ISLANDS (HIDDEN WONDERS / LAKE DISTRICT) (PB)

Robert Twigger, poet, artist, aikidoka and travel author, is beguiled by uninhabited islands. A lifelong passion for the Lake District leads him to embark on a mission to visit all 36 islands of the region - some little more than rocks, some home only to wildlife, some the perfect spot for camping. Armed only with an inflatable canoe, and inspired by writers including Wainwright, Wordsworth and Arthur Ransome, he journeys beyond the tourists and the busy roads to islands real and remembered.
