Photos: Kinder Scout Book Launch at Outside

• Friday 16th March 2018

Last night we launched our new book Kinder Scout at Outside in Hathersage. We're incredibly grateful to Friends of the Peak District for organising and supporting the event, and to Outside for hosting it and for their continued support. Authors Ed Douglas and John Beatty entertained a full house, and local author and poet Helen Mort chaired a Q&A with John and Ed. 

Andy Tickle from Friends of the Peak District introduces the evening.

John Beatty gives a slideshow about Kinder Scout, showing images from the book and others from his collection of 19,000 photographs of Kinder.

Ed Douglas talks about his relationship with Kinder Scout and the process of writing the book.
