Recollections
'RECOLLECTIONS'... takes readers on a pilgrimage through England and Wales in search of ancient landscapes, churches, abbeys, hill forts and castle. Martin Williamson's vivid, colourful, energetic paintings are accompanied by Giles Watson's thoughtful, closely-observed poems, which evoke memories of two decades spent exploring these treasured, sacred places. Texts and images alike will appeal to anyone who is fascinated by the landscape, history and traditions of the British Isles.

"...A splendid book. The ‘Penllech’ poetry is indeed profound – “the flinty chitters of swallows” is positively Laurie Lee. And I continue to admire the vividness of Martin Williamson’s paintings – I really can see early John Piper in ‘Kilpeck’…" Matthew Saunders, Director, Friends of Friendless Churches
