Description

The Heath: A Year on Hampstead Heath by Hunter Davies is an engaging portrait of this special place. Spanning eight hundred acres just four miles from central London, Hampstead Heath feels like the countryside, with its hills and lakes, wild spots and tame spots.

For over sixty years, Hunter Davies has lived within a stone's throw of the Heath, walking on it nearly every day of his life. In this book, he revisits all parts of the Heath, from Kenwood House to the Vale of Health, and talks to the diverse array of individuals who frequent the area.

From regulars and visitors to dog walkers and famous faces, Davies shares stories of memories and emotions that make the Heath a treasure-house of experiences. This affectionate book blends personal anecdote, history, and interviews to create a unique portrait of this beloved London landmark.
