  Providing a celebration of Snowdonia National Park, this book investigates the creation of its landscape and how its shape has affected agriculture and industry in the area. It also looks at the Celtic heritage, with its myths and language, how the region and its people have inspired artists through the ages, and the conflicting interests that threaten to destroy its beauty today. Throughout the book the author makes stops at beauty spots and other places of cultural and natural interest, and meets an array of characters such as farmers, national-park wardens and residents of forgotten industrial towns.
