      A sweeping photographic tour of the coastline of England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, featuring 100 color images. When Britain's National Trust was founded over a hundred years ago, the first property to be donated was a section of coastline overlooking Cardigan Bay in Wales. One of the Trust's founders famously wondered whether it would be their last. Certainly, it would have been beyond her wildest dreams to know that today the National Trust protects over 700 miles of the nation's coastline. This collection of photographs celebrates the diversity of the British coastline and encourages its preservation for future generations.

    • Over a hundred years ago, the National Trust was founded to preserve places of historic interest or natural beauty in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland. Today it protects more than 600,000 acres of land. The variety is unparalleled-from the fells and lakes of Cumbria to the wilderness wetlands of Wicken Fen in East Anglia. This collection of photographs reveals not only the natural beauty, but how the human hand has shaped the landscape over the centuries.
