Description
Rory Stewart's poignant account of his journey along the borderlands between England and Scotland is a beautifully written exploration of identity, memory, and landscape. As he walks alongside his father, they relive moments from their past, reflect on the world around them, and uncover the forgotten country of the Middleland.
Traversing mountain ridges and housing estates, they uncover a complex and often unsettling modern Britain, one that is struggling to reconcile its past and present. This is a chronicle of contemporary Britain, a history of the nationhood, and an exuberant encounter between a father and son.
With its open-mindedness, tolerance, and flexibility, this travel writing is at its best, offering a unique perspective on the world and our place in it.
