About the Author
Peter Hemon's first acquaintance with the hills was at the tender age of seven when he was terrified at being taken up Thorpe Cloud in Dovedale. Educated at Nottingham high School he was a frequent trekker on Kinder Scout and remembers Youth Hostelling over the Hard Knott and Wrynose passes when they were still rough farm tracks. For most of his working life he was an executive with BOAC and British Airways but, despite travelling the world, and a particular affection for the Grand Canyon, the lure of the British hills never paled. Peter has scaled the peaks of Lakeland, Wales and the Pennines many times but it was some years before his Welsh wanderings took him outside the confines of Snowdonia and he discovered the vast, unknown highlands that stretch all the way to Swansea Bay. A whole new world to conquer. Hence this book.
