Between the Salt and the Ash with Jake Morris-Campbell
After inheriting the miner’s safety lamp that belonged to his great-grandfather, Jake Morris-Campbell sets out on a pilgrimage across his homeland.
Travelling from the Holy Island of Lindisfarne to Durham Cathedral, he asks what new ways might be made through the old north.
Jake’s book Between the Salt and the Ash asks what stories the North East can tell about itself in the wake of Christianity and coal.
Rejecting the damaging trope of ‘left behind’ communities, Jake uncovers neglected seams of culture and history, while offering a heartfelt celebration of the place he calls hyem.
