## Description

Marches: A Borderland Journey Between England and Scotland : Stewart, Rory: desertcart.in: Books

Review: I loved this book and plan to re-read it. It is one of the most thoughtful books I have ever read, full of meditations and thought-provoking passages on the specific history of the border between England and Scotland, with many explorations of the Roman Empire’s mark on the land, which prompt memories of Britain’s own empire, which intertwine with a memoir of his father, who served that empire in Asia for decades. But the author goes beyond recitations of history to reflect on its patchwork influence. Why are some aspects of history still vitally important today and why are some entirely forgotten? Why are some people drawn to preserve a place’s history and culture, while others migrate from it? And so on. As well, he gives the reader a very good feel for the residents of the area and what challenges they face in daily life.All of this organized around a narrative that recounts his walks through the region, reminiscent of The Places In Between, which I also read and loved. This is a wise and thoughtful book that I savored and heartily recommend.
Review: Brilliant book interesting historically and as a dedication to his love for his father

My husband asked for it for Christmas and immediately started reading it as soon as he opened it. It is a captivating book that he could not put down.
