Since time immemorial, people have passed through these misty mountains as they traveled between the Scottish lowlands and highlands. The old ways through the mountains - the Mounth passes, as they are collectively called - are the subject of this book.

Each route is considered from an historical perspective, followed by a guide to walking the road (or what remains of the road) today.

Indeed, life on the road does present challenges, but the benefits significantly outweigh them.

El audiolibro cuenta la meritoria historia del Deportivo de La Coruña, el equipo de fútbol que en los años noventa se ganó el cariño de los aficionados españoles por sus heroicas gestas en la Liga y en la Copa del Rey.

No sé si el fútbol es como la vida, pero a veces se solapan. Todas las historias merecen ser contadas. Las del desamor y también las derrotas. Un estadio como metáfora de la existencia. A veces cosas que celebrar, las menos; otras veces tristezas, no tantas. Pero casi siempre silencio. El ruido de las máquinas que arreglan el césped, el chasquido disciplinado de los escobones en las gradas, el acople del micrófono en la prueba de la megafonía. Somos el estadio vacío a la espera del gran momento.

"When does a man quit the sea?" asked E.B. White. "Does he quit while he's ahead, or wait till he makes some major mistake?" Skipper and the crew seem to thrive pushing for the latter. Sailing alongside killer whales. Flying the Canadian flag upside down while coasting blithely into Victoria. Debating who gets left behind the day they have to squeeze into the three-man lifeboat. Interrogated by the US Coast Guard. Running aground. Losing themselves in blinding sea fog. Standing rapt beneath Taps' benediction as the American flag retires in Roche Harbor.
