A BOOK exploring friendship and the outdoors has been published by a retired headteacher.
Ron Scholes, an experienced long-distance fellwalker, published A Pennine Odyssey: A walk from the Staffordshire Moorlands and Derbyshire Dales to Hadrian's Wall In Wainwright's Footsteps, in 2022.
The book explores Ron's association and friendship with fellow author, Alfred Wainwright, who published the seven-volume series, Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells.
The story then follows routes from the southern end of the Pennines to Hadrian's Wall.
Ron has been a regular contributor to countryside programmes for BBC local radio, and to the Yorkshire Journal and Outdoor Pursuits magazine.
