Publisher's summary

Short-listed for TGO Magazine Book of the Year

This is an audiobook for everyone who truly loves the mountains and wild places. John Burns takes you on a journey of more than 40 years from the hills of Britain to adventures in the Rocky Mountains of the US and Canada. His love for the Scottish Highlands and his intimate knowledge of their wild glens and distant peaks means that this book will resonate with anyone whose heart lies in Scotland.

Join John Burns in his first faltering steps as a schoolboy in the English Lake District, through climbing adventures in the great ranges of the world, and finally to his return to his beloved Highlands.

This is an audiobook about the people who love mountains and whose journeys among them enrich their lives. It is a story told with humour, humility, and passion, a tale that displays a deeper understanding of what it is to have a relationship with nature.

The Last Hillwalker has become a best-seller among the outdoor community. This audiobook will be enjoyed by everyone from the serious mountaineer to those who simply want to gain a greater insight into our relationship with wild places.
