Dorset : the glorious county

Renowned photographer Roger Holman has been capturing images of his native Dorset for over fifty years. In this sumptuous new book, he journeys throughout this renowned landscape, from its unique coast - much of which is now a World Heritage Site - to the heathlands so memorably evoked by Thomas Hardy, the great Vales of Blackmoor and Marshwood and the timeless pastoral valleys of the Stour and the Frome. Ancient churches, picturesque watermills, romantic castles and scenic villages figure alongside great natural features like Golden Cap and Melbury Hill in this gorgeous celebration of Dorset in over 140 full colour images from the incomparable camera of Roger Holman.
