Those Earlier Hills
Reminiscences 1928 to 1961
R.M Patterson

Few men have been as set on isolated adventures and as passionate about the wild landscape of Canada as R.M. Patterson. He spent over 30 years in exploration, from northern rivers such as the Nahanni and the Liard, to the foothills of the Rockies, and he recorded his discoveries in vivid words and breathtaking photographs along the way. For the first time, his memorable articles are presented as a collection by TouchWood Editions. 

R.M. Patterson moved to Canada when he realized that working in a London bank would never bring him happiness. He was a delightfully evocative writer and an intrepid explorer and TouchWood Editions is proud to be keeping his works in print.
