Title: High Dale Country
Description: Himself a Dalesman born and bred, and married to the daughter of a Dales farmer, Bill Mitchell has roamed the beautiful and ancient landscape of the Yorkshire Dales since boyhood. As the former editor of _The Dalesman_, his knowledge and understanding of his fellow dales folk are second to none.

In *High Dale Country* he celebrates the more remote regions of the Dales, the high country, where the last flourish of meadows and pasture gives way to rugged, unimproved fell -- and where a hardy, laconic race makes its living.

Through Wensleydale and Swaledale, Warfedale and Ribblesdale, and northward to Teesdale and Weardale, the reader is taken on a fascinating journey through an elemental landscape, and introduced to a wealth of colorful characters. Illustrated with the author's own photographs, *High Dale Country* is a rich evocation of the very essence of Dales life.
