Synopsis
Tom Weir as a popular television personality climaxed a long life as explorer, naturalist and photographer. His dedication took him from impoverished Glasgow to the ends of the earth and this selection, some never before published, touches on all his many enthusiasms, a book to appeal to all who hold dear the memory of a notable Scotsman. Wiith the full cooperation of Tom's widow, Rhona Weir, Hamish Brown has gathered a selection of his writings and presents them chronologically with an illuminating foreword. Together they form a sort of autobiography, the life of a man writing as he goes. This book will be one of the most eagerly anticipated titles to be published in Scotland in 2013.

Paperback. Etat : New. From the mountains of the Scottish Highlands, to Morocco and the Alps, Scottish Explorer Tom Weir encountered many of the wonders of the world in his 91 years of life. Known for 40 years of contributions to the Scotsman magazine, or his successful television broadcast 'Weir's Way', Tom Weir's dedication to the wilderness reserves a special place in any Scottish naturalist's heart. Piecing together Weir's eventful life in his very own words, Tom Weir: An Anthology, edited by Hamish Brown, invites us closer into Tom's world than ever before, exploring the captivating landscapes of Greenland, Corsica and Norway, serving in the Royal Artillery of World War Two alongside him, and developing his love for rambling from humbling beginnings as a working class boy from Springburn. Using his own expertise as a much-travelled author, lecturer and photographer, Hamish Brown delves deep into the inspiring life of such a well-loved figure, one article at a time. Assembled with full co-operation of Tom's late wife Rhona Weir, this inspiring and insightful anthology is a beautiful refection on such a full life, with a pure facination for the natural world shining through every page. 'Getting to know more about the man himself, his exploits, and the world he lived in is the chief joy of this fascinating book' -- Undiscovered Scotland. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781908737281
