  Tom Weir is one of Scotland's best-known and best-loved figures, a world traveller who brings a tireless enthusiasm to the promotion of Scotland's natural heritage. From his birth in Springburn, Glasgow, in 1914, Tom Weir's love of wilder parts has taken him to all corners of the globe. In 1951, he was in the first post-war party to climb in the Himalayas, and has written extensively about the region. In Scotland, his knowledge of the land and its wildlife is unrivalled, represented not least in his photography. For many years, he has presented his own television programme, Weir's Way , becoming something of a living legend among ramblers and climbers alike. The story of his life should also be of interest to Scots at home and abroad.
