Description
The Highlands are home to Britain's most spectacular mountain scenery and the wide range of landscapes have attracted generations of hillwalkers and mountaineers. This book is intended to help those who adore this landscape to gain an insight into the geological forces that shaped it by telling the story of how the rocks were created and shaped by the gross forces of plate tectonics, colliding continents, volcanoes and glaciation. Also features 18 walks with a variety of geological features set among consistently fantastic views.
