Kat is an adventurer, a food writer who travels the world visiting far-flung places & eating unusual things. Now she is about to embark on her biggest adventure yet
- a relationship.

She has fallen in love with an Italian man & is moving to live with him in Venice where she will help him run his small guesthouse, Hotel Gondola.

Kat has lined up a book deal & will write about the first year of her new adventure, the food she eats, the recipes she collects, the people she meets, the man she doesnt really know all that well but is going to make a life with.

This is the seventh of Bill Birkett's prize-winning & widely praised photographic essays which portray, throughout the seasons, his love affair with the wildest & most impressive mountain areas of Britain. Snowdonia, the third largest National Park in Britain, is unsurpassed in its variety of landscape. It ranges through the high rugged mountains around Snowdon to the far-flung high groups of the Rhinogs, Arennigs & Arans, & the mighty Cadair Idris. It stretches some 85 kilometres
- from Conwy & its magnificent castle in the north to Aberdovey & its Roman road in the south. Snowdonia attracts over 6 million visitors annually. A leading centre for all who love the natural world & a major recreational area for climbers & walkers, it is not a region of complete wildness: adding to its character are the 27, 500 people who live & work there, in the heartland of Welsh-speaking Wales. Some 65 per cent of the inhabitants have Welsh as their first language, & have strong links with other peoples of the Atlantic coast, such as Cornwall, Brittany & the Basque region of Spain. At 1, 085 metres, Snowdon is the highest mountain in Wales & higher than any mountain in England; its evocative Welsh name Eryri means 'place of the eagles'. Along with some of the most dramatic & magnificent scenery in Britain, Eryri contains a huge variety of habitats for animals, birds & plants. Between the sea & the mountains the region has 37 kilometres of coastline, with beaches cut by deep estuaries. Above the coast, glacially carved valleys fed by mountain lakes & streams support the remnants of broad-leaved woodlands of oak, ash, rowan & hazel. There are more National Nature Reserves in Eryri than in any other National Park in Britain.

Set in the heart of England's countryside, the Cotswolds occupies the area between Gloucester, Bath, Oxford & Stratford-upon-Avon. This area is a perfect blend of gentle rolling hills, plentiful archaeological sites & charming villages built from a local honey coloured limestone. In recognition of the beauty of this quintessentially English countryside, the area covering 790 square miles was designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in 1966. Despite its popularity with tourists, the Cotswolds remains tranquil & serene. The perfect, traditional Cotswolds villages offer historic places, friendly pubs & craft shops. Most of the villages & smaller towns have survived unspoilt. Traditional museums like Corinium Museum in Cirencester, Cotswolds Museum in Bourton-on-the-Water, Gloucester Cathedral, Roman Baths, Sudeley Castle or Blenheim Palace are complemented by fabulous gardens of Westonbirt, Painswick, Batsford & Hidcote. The countryside with its gentle hills & open spaces is ideal for a variety of outdoor activities such as horse-riding, cycling, ballooning & walking, making the Cotswolds a dream place to live & visit. Beata Moore's glorious photographs show the charm of the Cotswolds through the seasons. ...

Stretching along the bordering counties with England ? Cheshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire & Monmouthshire ? the Welsh Marches are made up of a mixture of mountains & moorlands, farms & wooded river valleys. The densest concentration of motte-&-bailey castles anywhere in England or Wales is to be found in this fine walking territory. ...

In A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess she describes the age-old cycles of a farming year & the constant challenges the family faces, from being cut off in winter to tending their flock on some of Yorkshires highest, bleakest moors
- land so inaccessible that in places it can only be reached on foot.

Writing with her trademark warmth & humour, Amanda takes us into her life as nine-year-old Miles gets his first flock, Reuben takes up the flugelhorn & she gives birth to a new baby girl. She is touched by the epic two-day journey of a mother sheep determined to find her lamb & gives a new home to an ageing & neglected horse.

Meanwhile Clive is almost arrested on a midnight stakeout to catch a sheep-worrying dog & becomes the object of affection for a randy young bull.

Funny, poignant & charming, A Year in the Life of the Yorkshire Shepherdess is a must for anyone interested in the countryside & those who farm it.
