The Sea on Our Left

Description

The bestselling story of a husband and wife team who walked clockwise for 302 days around the coastline of mainland Britain. Both 52, they gave up comfort in Tunbridge Wells to spend the next 10 months trudging 4,300 miles. Contending with blisters, stomach cramps, Highland midges and life together in a tent, the trip came close to destroying their health and their marriage. However, their lively humour and sheer determination gets them through - just! Shally's walk around Britain has inspired Volunteer Coastguards to conduct a walk during 2002 based on her book.
