Book

Whether you’re interested in remarkable people’s lives or the wonder of landscapes, Dan Richards’ masterclass will help you hone your stories by encouraging you to engage directly and poetically with source material, and the power of asking simple child-like questions. 

Be it conveying the mêlée of the Le Mans 24-hour race, the splendid slog of climbing an alpine peak, or talking to painters about their process, Dan has been there and written the book.  

Dan Richards is an acclaimed non-fiction writer specialising in art, travel and adventure. He is the author of The Beechwood Airship Interviews, Climbing Days, and the Sunday Times bestselling Holloway, which he co-authored with Robert Macfarlane. His latest release, Outpost, was released in 2019. 

In partnership with Arvon.
