Footprints

Description

A book for anyone seeking to escape urban life with all its demands and limitations in order to discover the magic of wilderness in its truest sense.

The author, Alastair Christie-Johnston, was born in 1940 on the island of Yell, Shetland and after spending 50 years in Tasmania, Australia, he returned to his birthplace in 2009. Now in his 83rd year, he continues to enjoy the two subjects of these Footprints – hill walking and photography. Besides documenting the wilderness aspects of Shetland and elsewhere, within these pages he also explores several topical issues such as carbon neutrality, remote living and personal well-being, making this an informative and thought-provoking read.
