London: Collins, 2009. Hardback. xiv, 402pp. Dust jacket in a protective sleeve. Dartmoor is said to be the last great southern wilderness in England. Popularly, the area has been renowned as a vast and empty moorland area, which is actually the product of 5,000 years of hill farmers' stockmanship and the grazing of their cattle, sheep and ponies.

Dartmoor is said to be the loneliest wilderness in England. This has been said more often of Dartmoor than any other part of our country. Traditionally in the world of fiction as well as that of fact, Dartmoor has been renowned as a vast and empty moorland area, the property of nature rather than of man. It has always been the public's idea of a lonely place. Not many generations ago it was regarded with a certain amount of awe and nowadays it is one of our most important centres of recreation, an island in upland England of abundant interest to the naturalist. In 1951 it became a National Park, one of the first of several places that have been so designated in Great Britain, helping to conserve and promote both its beauty and cultural heritage.
