Contested Mountains - Nature, Development and Environment in the Cairngorms Region of Scotland, 1880-1980 (Paperback, New edition)

Contested Mountains is an historical study of the extraordinary changes in attitudes to Nature and the use of land in the Cairngorms region since 1880. The study looks at early visitor perceptions of the region and the history of rights of way disputes in the area. It also presents an environmental history of the osprey in Scotland, and the history and development of Glenmore National Forest Park, the Aviemore tourist industry, the Cairngorms National Nature Reserve and the Cairngorms National Park ideal. Contested Mountains is essential reading for anyone interested in the historical background to present-day debates about land-use and access in the Cairngorms.
