Harry Griffin was a lifelong rock climber and one of the founding members of the Coniston Tigers climbing club. His career in journalism included a 53-year unbroken series of 'Country Diary' entries for The Guardian from 1951 until his death in 2004. Peter Hardy edited The High Places in 2008. And anthology of Harry Griffin's articles for the Lancashire Evening Post.
If you haven't read any of Harry's books before then you should rush out and buy it. Not just for the depths of harry's knowledge, but more for the joy of reading something so simple, so precise and factual, but which still manages to express how most of us feel about the Lake District.

It also includes passages from Music and Mountains, his unfinished and final manuscript which records both his experience as music critic of the Daily Mail in Manchester before and after the war where he met and heard many celebrated musicians and, more personally, recounts the importance of his own daily struggles with performance.
