Seton Gordon\'s Cairngorms
Seton Gordon was a pioneering naturalist, photographer and writer - an ecologist before the word was coined. He was a prolific author with 27 books to his name, the first appearing when he was just eighteen. He wrote with a revelational wonder and freshness, crafting descriptions that could only be written by someone intimately at home in the hills with their fauna and flora, geology and landscape, Gaelic culture, history and folklore. Seton Gordon lived to a great age but the Cairngorms were his first love, the place he returned to many times throughout his life and his writing. In this companion volume to Seton Gordon\'s Scotland Hamish Brown has gathered an engaging selection from Seton Gordon\'s extensive writings about these hills, much of which comes from books other than the well-known The Cairngorms Hills of Scotland (1925). Seton Gordon\'s Cairngorms encapsulates the beauty and majesty of these hills - with descriptions of hill days throughout the seasons - now much changed - and intimate descriptions of wildlife. Hamish Brown has garnered a collection of gems enhanced by archive photographs to create the essential distillation of Seton Gordon\'s Cairngorms.
