About this listen

I sought to look beyond only the beauty of the lakes to explore the arts and heritage upon which the greatness of the county is built. Here we have the stories of people. Both tales of famous Cumbrians or those whose exploits focused the attention of the world on the region; and then sitting alongside are poems telling of ordinary people getting to have their story shared for the first time. Cumbria’s industrial past and present provided ample inspiration. There are poetic journeys telling of my own personal perspective on the county I have been visiting since being a small boy. And I pay homage to some of the creative geniuses who found themselves also inspired by Cumbria. Although I looked beyond the lakes, they are never easily ignored and get to take centre-stage in more than a few poems! I hope that you enjoy this collection as much as I loved writing it for you.
