Granite tors, ancient hut circles, and the ghosts of tin-streamers who worked the moor before memory. Sabine Baring-Gould walks Dartmoor from its weathered antiquities to the camps and the wild stretch of Lydford, gathering legend and landscape in one hand. A rich portrait of England's most haunting upland. Lace your boots for the high moor.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
