I found this extremely delightful to read. It did bog (no pun intended as Stewart did encounter many bogs on his journey) down a bit in the middle but ends poignantly. Such a good read. Rory Stewart is an excellent writer and describer of landscapes. A diplomat, wanderer, former Member of Parliament, Professor at Yale and Harvard, his CV is fascinating. But this is a very human memoir that focuses on a son and his father in the ancient middle lands between England and Scotland.
