STEEL RIVER: WALKING THE TEES (APOLLO) (PB)

Steve Nicholls makes an epic journey along the River Tees from the industrial complexes near its estuary to its source high in the Pennine Hills. He weaves together strands of personal experience, nature writing, botany, geology and history with an account of the impact of human industry and agriculture on the Tees and its valley. A natural and social history of a remarkable river, which also presents the Tees as a microcosm of our environmentally damaged and endangered world.
