William Condry — celebrated naturalist, writer, and lifelong Welsh resident — presents a comprehensive survey of Wales's landscapes, wildlife, history, and culture, guiding the reader through its rugged coastlines, verdant valleys, and storied medieval heritage with the eye of a seasoned observer and the passion of a true devotee.\n\nCondry's prose is at once lyrical and informative, weaving together natural history, geology, and human geography into a seamless narrative that illuminates the soul of Wales. Rooted in decades of firsthand wandering across the country, the work argues that to truly understand Wales one must engage with both its wild places and its deep human history — from Neolithic standing stones to Norman castles crumbling into the hillsides. A timeless companion for traveller and armchair explorer alike, Exploring Wales leaves the reader with an insatiable desire to set foot on Welsh soil and discover its wonders for themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50736374546651,"sku":"2026100010518-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c51c14ba-c5f9-4040-8aeb-6e489685af9d.png?v=1792122877","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100010518-secondhand-exploring-wales","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
