Read about poets and writers from Wordsworth, Ruskin and Southey, to Beatrix Potter and Arthur Ransome. Look under the surface in Cumbria to see how nature and man has changed the landscape. Find out about pack horses and coaches, the guide writers who attracted tourists to the Lake District, steam trains and steam ships.
