A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Meet Jack, Calum and Robbie Hudson, three brothers born and raised exploring the wild outdoors. When they moved to Cumbria from Yorkshire they discovered the idyllic Lake District was within cycling distance. There they learned the simple joy of whiling away their summers jumping off stacks and wild swimming with friends. Eventually, as they grew older, the brothers started to notice that folk, including themselves, were growing increasingly more detached from the natural world. Working in cities, they began to feel the weight of life in the urban grind - the common monotony of nine-to-five, during which the only wildlife around is the occasional pigeon. At the same time they noticed a sad cycle of anxiety, fatigue and desperation. It seemed like everything they'd done as kids was fading behind the tinted glass of nostalgia. So, they decided to get together and change their course. Suddenly the Wild Swimming Brothers was born.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Meet Jack, Calum and Robbie Hudson, three brothers born and raised exploring the wild outdoors. Growing up they discovered the simple joy of whiling away the seasons jumping off hay stacks and lake swimming with friends. As they got older, they started to notice that folk, including themselves, were growing increasingly more detached from nature. Working in cities, they began to feel the weight of life in the urban grind, the common monotony of nine-to-five, during which the only wildlife around is the occasional pigeon. It seemed like everything they'd done as kids was fading, so they decided to change their course. Suddenly the Wild Swimming Brothers was born.
