The entire Landscape series from Macfarlane:

- Mountains of the Mind (a history and first-person account of mountain climbing)

- The Wild Places (a history and exploration of the 'wild' landscapes of the British Isles)

- The Old Ways (a history and exploration of the ancient paths of the world)

are all really excellent (and can be read in any order). He's a fabulous writer, kind of like a Kapuściński for the natural world.
