Description

Betrayal, the loss of a home, news of a fatal illness—all of it crashed down at once on a 50-year-old married couple in the UK, completely unexpectedly. Confused, desperate, and almost without money, they make what seems like the craziest decision: to set out on a trek along the 630-mile long south-west coastal trail, famous for its harsh beauty. In 2013, after barely managing to throw backpacks with the bare essentials onto their shoulders, they began their journey through breathtaking landscapes—facing every difficulty of life in the wild and changing with every step.

In September 2019, the book became the first bestseller in the UK.
