Celebrated artist, Emma Cownie, suffers from PTSD which has resulted in her having limited physical and mental energy and not being able to do various items on her "bucket list" of things to do. In this book, she writes about how she decided to confront her limitations and tick off one of the items on her "bucket list"; to walk and paint the Gower coast.

The Gower peninsula, in South West Wales, was Britain’s first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and it's beauty is revealed via photos and Emma's oil paintings which help document her walk around it's beautiful coast.

Emma is also a Doctor of History and puts these advanced skills to good use in detailing episodes from Gower's rich and intriguing past.

She also learns much about herself as she does Gower, of how knowing one's limitations can be an asset on life's journey too.

Join Emma on this interesting and fulfilling walk, as she brings Gower's past to life, through beautiful images and words, through her gentle, dry wit and keen observation of life’s eccentricities. Such is the clarity of her writing it will feel like you are walking the journey with her.

A recommended read from a very entertaining and informative travel guide.

Art and Travel Book

I have long enjoyed Emma Cownie's art blog and marveled at her paintings. She captures landscapes, seascapes, people, animals, and the play of light so well. Since I will most likely never visit the Gower Coast, the photographs and paintings, along with the descriptions of her travels, take me "across the pond" to a beautiful place.

Gorgeous Paintings!

Reviewed in the United States on 18 June 2019

This is a lovely book. Emma Cownie interweaves her personal story with the locale in which she lives and paints. She hiked and painted along the Gower Coast in South East England for over a year, and describes it with paintings and prose. The details about the hikes, buildings, and history make for good reading, but it is her paintings that make this book compelling.
