This is the remarkable story of George Heath, The Moorland Poet. He was born into poverty in Gratton in 1844 and tragically died at the tender age of 25 years. It is a story of unrequited love and mystery that captures the imagination. Despite the tragedy of his short life, this book highlights his positivity, spirituality and love of nature. This warm-hearted, talented poet wrote a collection of poems and kept a diary that are autobiographical and a valuable local social history.
