ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 1962). 1962 1st edition. 8vo (142 x 220mm). Pp168. Colour frontispiece and b/w scraperboard illustrations by D.J. Watkins-Pitchford, map. Dark blue boards, spine titled in gilt. 21s. 0d. Good-plus in slightly frayed complete dust-wrapper…. "Setting out in the soft fall of the year, [the author] travelled north by way of the lovely Yorkshire dales and visiting the exquisite abbeys as he went along. There are memorable word-pictures of lonely lochs set gem-like among the hills, where golden eagles soared over his encampment and the stag roared hoarsley from a mist-filled corrie. He encountered a fierce bull, he saw a mysterious sea monster in a loch (adjoining Loch Ness!) and had many other adventures which in the telling make rare reading. Seals, black-throated divers, eagles, capercailzie, blackgame, stags - those almost unknowable things in our urban existence - he met them all upon his journey, and you may meet them too, in word and lovely engraving. As before, D.J. Watkins-Pitchford has illustrated the book in his own unmistakable style, conveying so vividly, in some 72 black-and-white drawings, all the atmosphere of the Highland scene." Chapters include:- The bull; Morning departure; The glory of Rievaulx; The Rievaulx Valley; Over the border; The Sma' Glen and the road north; Rain and forest of Darnaway; Dunbeath and further north; The ultimate land; To Lochinver and the Wester Sea; Achmelvich and the Fairy Bay; Ullapool and the Great Gorge; Lovely Loch Maree; Loch Ness and the Glen of Fairies; The monster of Loch Eil; The great storm at Arkaig; The road south. . Denys Watkins-Pitchford (illustrator).
