This beautifully curated anthology brings together a rich collection of writings, old and new, inspired by the enduring craft and culture of dry stone walling. Drawing on historical texts, contemporary reflections, poetry, and personal accounts, it celebrates the written word as expressions of a living tradition. Beautifully illustrated throughout, the book features an inspiring range of artwork in diverse media. Together, these words and images capture the skill, heritage, landscapes, and communities shaped by dry stone walls. A treasure for wallers, historians, artists, and countryside lovers alike, this anthology offers a unique and deeply rewarding exploration of one of Britain’s most distinctive rural crafts.
