Description

In this easy to read book Paul Gannon explains the origins of the enchanting scenery of Snowdonia from its creation through crashing continental tectonic plates, violent volcanoes and overpowering glacial gouging as well as the hand of humans through quarrying. In the first half of the book Paul accounts in clear language how the landscape came about. In the second half he leads you on 13 walks which describe the views out over the mountains and back through time. The walks range from easy to challenging, but all offer superb geological examples and very fine views.
