About
A heart-warming account of a father and son's journey of self discovery on foot around their own home county.
Following their earlier adventures on the White Horse Trail, David Clensy and his young son Charlie set off on another long walk – this time seeking to tackle the 50 miles of Wiltshire's Sarsen Way, from Swindon to Salisbury.
Along the way, they come face to face with much of the county's ancient heritage – from The Ridgeway, Avebury World Heritage site and Stonehenge to West Kennett Long Barrow and the mysterious Silbury Hill.
But their adventure doesn't end with their arrival at Salisbury Cathedral, as the father and son duo decide to keep walking – taking on the additional 17.5 miles of the Cranborne Droves Way from Salisbury to Win Green, near Shaftesbury.
The reader is taken on a lyrical meander through the natural wonders of southern England's chalk downland environment, its people, heritage and wildlife.
