Often called the last wilderness of southern Britain, Dartmoor is one of the National Parks of England and Wales. It combines wild open moorland, granite tors and wooded river valleys with areas of spectacular landscape. This collection presents a picture of life in and around Dartmoor from the end of the nineteenth century to the present day. It shows the people on Dartmoor, residents as well as tourists, and the characteristic industries in which they worked: tin mining, farming, quarrying and even the manufacture of gunpowder, many of which have disappeared to be replaced by an economy geared to tourism. Special attntion is given to the Pixies Holt Residential Centre and also to the Ten Tors Walk. Dartmoor contains over 200 photographs, many of which have never been published before. They are accompanied by Devon author Ted Gosling's informative captions. This book will be of great interest to everyone who has ever visited Dartmoor, and it will make a captivating and unusual souvenir.
