  Join acclaimed travel writer and incurably curious hiker Tom Chesshyre in this celebration of the Peak District, Britain’s first National Park, on its 75th anniversary 
  'Funny, fair and honest, and effortlessly readable' Matthew Parris 
  In the heart of England lies a fascinating landscape of rugged dark gritstone plateaus and gentle green limestone valleys: the Peak District. But this national treasure hasn’t always been open to all. 
  On a spring day in 1932, 400 disgruntled ramblers embarked on a ‘mass trespass’ of Kinder Scout, the Peak’s highest point. Their aim? To establish a right to roam across the land, against the wishes of wealthy owners. And in 1951 they finally got what they wanted: the Peak District was established as Britain’s first national park. Home to striking dragon-back ridges of rock, vast expanses of peat, farms and villages, cloughs and caverns, the Peak is much more than the ‘howling wilderness’ described by Daniel Defoe three centuries ago. 
  To mark the park’s 75th anniversary, celebrated travel writer Tom Chesshyre hit the trails on a 360-odd mile ramble to find out how this dramatic landscape has fared – and to celebrate this symbolic home of hiking. 
  Wild Peaks follows winding paths, pausing at old inns and mountain huts, and along the way meeting a rich cast of landowners, farmers, historians, mountaineers, publicans, rangers, right-to-roamers, travellers, mountain-rescue members, mystics, dreamers and fellow hikers. 
  Don your cagoule, grab a compass and join Tom as he explores how this place has changed, and how we have too. 
  For fans of Monisha Rajesh (Moonlight Express), Nige Tassell (Searching for Dexys Midnight Runners), Ben Aitken (A Chip Shop in Poznan), Michael Palin (Travelling to Work), and Mark Gregory Probert (Journey through Wales).

  ‘If you’ve read anything about the alien abduction enigma, then you will surely have heard the term ‘the greys’ which, of course, refers to the small grey humanoids involved in such experiences. In this book, investigator and experiencer Philip Kinsella draws on his extensive experience to pose the crucial questions about this phenomenon. The author also looks at the similarities with other high-strangeness experiences with a wide variety of otherworldly beings around the globe. If you have any interest in these subjects, then this could well be the book for you.’  Philip Mantle, British Ufologist, researcher, and author.  
  ‘Philip Kinsella’s Terrestrial Trespassers is an up-to-date, intelligent and broad-ranging survey of the alien abduction phenomenon, which explores many related paranormal phenomena as an integral part of the author’s thesis. Illustrations (many by Ronald Kinsella), archive photos, graphs and maps relevant to the narrative text enhance the reader’s experience by bringing the story alive. Highly recommended for both those new to this study and those more familiar with the literary canon on the subject.’  Steve Aspin, author of Out of Time: The Intergenerational Abduction Program Explored (2022) 
  ‘Excellent writing and ideas.  Philip explores numerous aspects of this strange phenomenon and includes a spiritual discussion.  One idea is that the Greys may be clones or artificially fabricated and may have eradicated the elements of their ‘spirit,’ which humans possess.  They may see using us as a method to escape such a robotic existence.’  Dr Irena McCammon Scott, author of "UFOs Today: 70 Years of Lies, Misinformation, and Government Cover-up."

  When we go for a walk, whether in the countryside or city, we pass through landscapes full of natural beauty and curiosities both visible and invisible - but though we might admire the view, or wonder idly about the name of a flower, we rarely have the knowledge to fully engage with what we see. When we do, our sense of place is expanded, our understanding deepened and we can discover richness in even the most everyday stroll. 
   
  John Wright has been leading forays around Britain for decades. As an expert forager, he shows people how to identify the edible species that abound - but he also reveals the natural history, stories and science behind our surroundings. Here, he takes us with him on eight walks: from verdant forests to wild coastlines, via city pavements, fields and rolling hills, he illuminates what can be found on a walk across any British terrain, and how you might observe and truly understand them, for yourself.
