Bücher von David Joy
David Joy has written extensively on many aspects of Yorkshire. He has widespread interests in the countryside - and especially the Dales. A former editor of the Dalesman, he has also served on the Yorkshire Dales National Park Committee. A founder member of what is now the Friends of the Yorkshire Dales, he later became a founder trustee of the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust. For almost 40 years he was local secretary of CPRE (Campaign for the Protection of Rural England) and ceaselessly strove to safeguard the finest features of the Dales. In 2006 he was awarded the MBE for 'services to the environment'. As a landowner he has always believed that conservationists and farmers needed to be on the same side. Otherwise, a way of life that has endured in the Dales for more than a thousand years will be lost and the area will become a combination of theme park and wilderness.
