James Rebanks
author of The Shepherd's View and the New York Times best-selling memoir The Shepherd’s Life
“Maybe people will value my book in years to come...but I'm not too worried about that. For me the hope is that someone stands on my fell with a flock of Herdwick sheep, and feels the love I feel for this place. There are some things bigger than a man's life.”
