Synopsis

Nestled within the heart of the county, the Kent Downs are home to some of the most enchanting countryside within the southern England, sparsely settled and largely untouched by the pressures of the modern age. The book unravels the history of its settlement and colonization, the inspiration it has given to poets, artists, and authors, and the legacy of its rich and varied natural treasures that define its special characteristics. Richly illustrated with around 100 stunning photographs in color and monochrome, the book is a tribute to the many who have found solace and inspiration on the Kent Downs, and will appeal to those who live, work, or visit the area. Having spent most of his life living and working in the countryside of the Kent Downs, Dan Tuson offers an intimate and inspiring exploration of this unique landscape. He is a regular contributor of articles and photographs to the The Orchid magazine of Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, many of which have been included within the book, and illustrated with the beautiful artwork of fellow The Orchid contributors, Angel Design.
