Hamish's Mountain Walk

Hamish Brown

Hamish Brown was the first walker and climber to complete the Munros in a single round. By his own rules, he did it self-powered except where ferries were required and with the aid of his trusty, fold-away bike. The year was 1974 and the roads of Scotland carried only a fraction of the traffic they do today, windfarms were unheard of and crofting remained a vibrant element of rural livliehoods. This will be a book that every lover of the Scottish hills - and anyone who has been touched by the spirit of the outdoors - will want to read and reread.
