A book which documents 50 of Northumberland's rocks to celebrate the 50th anniversary of a local wildlife charity is finally set to get its launch event this month.
Northumberland Rocks by Ian Jackson tells the story of Northumberland's geological history from 425 million years ago right up to the present day and explains how and why its rocks are the reason for the region's scenery and landscape. Published in December 2021 to coincide with a half-century of Northumberland Wildlife Trust, the book is finally getting its full launch at the Sill National Landscape Discovery Centre in Northumberland National Park.
Coronavirus restrictions have so far prevented an official launch for the book, yet despite this it has been well received, with readers and reviewers praising both the photographs and the 'accessible' way it's written. Others have even used it as a guide to walks in the county.
