![]() ![]() ![]() We are spared that kind of scene here, I am pleased to report, and I must also add that "godforsaken" is pretty much the last word Macfarlane would use to describe a mountain. His second book, The Wild Places, tried to get as close to wilderness as these islands can provide I have not read his first, Mountains of the Mind, because of a review that said he describes whittling his frozen fingers with a penknife while crawling up, or down, some godforsaken peak. Macfarlane tends to prefer the wilder and woollier environments. ![]()
