Matt Haig, Independent 'Dip tells of a total immersion in Nature, a courageous trust in its restorative powers and an authentic experience of the wild. This is a damn good read.'

Jim Perrin, Great Outdoors Magazine Further info can be found on Andrew's new website for photography and writing for adults www.andrewfusekpeters.com.
