About the book

Nan Shepherd's The Living Mountain is a lyrical exploration of Scotland's Cairngorm Mountains. Rather than treating the landscape as something to conquer, Shepherd describes walking, weather, water, wildlife and the sensory experience of being within the mountains. The book has become a classic of nature writing for its intimate and contemplative approach to place.
