About the Authors
Tom Chrystal was born in Huntly, north-east Scotland, and began walking in the eastern Grampians of his native Aberdeenshire. After leaving school he became a military bandsman, spending a year at the Royal Military School of Music. A career in the civil service followed with precious holidays spent walking in the Pyrenees. He took a year off work to visit mountain ranges in Alaska, Canada and Tasmania and went on to study social anthropology at the London School of Economics. Tom has walked in over 30 mountain and upland areas in 15 countries.
Beáta Dósa was born in Mezőkövesd in north-east Hungary and spent her childhood in the village of Tibolddaróc on the edge of the Bükk National Park. Beáta first experienced the joys of hill walking in the Bükk and Zemplén while a member of the state youth movement or Pioneers. She attended Sárospatak bilingual school and took a Masters degree in History of Theatre at the University of Veszprém. As a freelance translator and interpreter Beáta has worked for Hungarian television and nongovernment organisations and now works for the British Council. Beáta has walked in the Scottish Highlands and Islands, the English Lake District and Slovakian High Tatra.
