A book to soothe the soul
From an anger-inducing book to one which has the opposite effect. There have been many books on the landscape of the Scottish highlands, but few have gone above the treeline where the environment is cold and harsh but beautiful.
This hardback book is a collection of landscape photographer Joe Cornish's most alluring photos of Scotland's mountains, fells, tarns, waterfalls and dales, accompanied by text describing the experience of obtaining them. Most are colour, but some are duotone. Although we have an issue with the penchant of those who design this type of book for "artistic white space", an hour spent with the pictures in this book is sure to refresh you, make you better able to face life's stresses.
