Book Description

A striking portrait of the man once described as 'the most active volcano in Europe' - Canon Hardwicke Rawnsley was a charismatic and passionate man, whose devotion to protecting land from development and energetic campaigning style led to his well-deserved nickname of ‘Defender of the Lakes’. His belief in preserving the natural landscape for everyone to enjoy for ever is as important today as it was over 125 years ago, when he helped to found the National Trust.
