Description

"In 2013 Ian Crofton undertook ... a walk along the Border between Scotland and England. It would be an exploration both of his own identity - not quite Scottish, not quite English - and of a largely unexplored stretch of country. Apart from a line marked on the map, the route is not obvious. For much of its length, the Border either follows the middle of various rivers, or traces the Southern Upland watershed ... During the course of his walk, [he] investigates the history, literature and legend of the Border. He talks to a range of people he comes across ... to find out what they make of the Border, if anything at all"--Publisher's description.
