Wild Woman Swimming: A Journal of West Country Waters Paperback – January 1, 2018
Purchase options and add-ons
For five years, until a brain tumour made swimming and writing impossibly hard, Lynne recorded her adventures in over sixty wild waters.
By turns lyrical and adrenaline-fueled, solitary and communal, her diaries are a celebration of Dartmoor, the Devon coast and the close-knit communities that grow from a shared endeavour.
This book is for outdoor swimmers, nature lovers and all who prize the wild and free.
