Conversations from Land’s End to John o’Groats is a collection of stories from craftspeople working in places known for making one thing. The publication is part of the Journeyman project. Journeyman is a term used for a trained worker after finishing an apprenticeship who would take to the road with their union card to look for work.

It was these tradespeople that inspired Nick Hand to cycle from Land’s End to John o’Groats on a bicycle with a printing press on the back. Scissors in Sheffield, shoes in Northamptonshire and whisky in Speyside are among the trades visited, and in each studio, workshop or factory, Nick printed postcards celebrating the trade on his printing bike.

168x135mm. Casebound with jacket. 72 pages. Full colour photography and original wood and lino engravings.

Contributions from Molly Lemon, Jon McNaught, Hannah Cousins and Jonathan Cherry.
