Reviews
"Westering is a beautifully compelling reminder that we never walk alone. Alongside us, always, are the complex cultural and natural histories, topographies, geologies and folk memories that have helped shape the path and those places we pass. Laurence Mitchell is a superb and illuminating guide to the rich seam of stories found underfoot." Julian Hoffman, author of Irreplaceable; Praise for Previous Work; "A rich level of local detail" Wanderlust Magazine
