Discovering Crockett's Galloway (Volume 1) Crockett Country

This is the first volume of the 'Discovering Crockett's Galloway' series in which Cally Phillips explores Galloway through the work of S.R.Crockett. 'Galloway is a wide, wild place where the raw edges of creation have not been rubbed down.' Explore Galloway from your armchair and in the company of 'Scotland's Forgotten Bestseller,' S.R.Crockett. (1859-1914) In the first volume of this series, Cally Phillips takes you on a journey into the Galloway Hills melding Crockett's fiction and observation with the landscape and history of this beautiful part of Scotland. The journey is one of the imagination where fact meets fiction. Cally's own journey into the Galloway hills forms part of the narrative and, if you choose to go along you will find yourself becoming part of the adventure too. If you have never been into the Galloway Hills this will make you want to go and if you know them well you'll see them in quite a new light.
