Remarkable People

Through the course of his professional life, Dan Walker  has encountered a stream of extraordinary people with intriguing and uplifting stories, stories that all too often are hidden in plain sight.

In Remarkable People, he recounts these wonderful and inspiring narratives, exploring themes such as deprivation, inequality, loneliness and mental health. In the process, he highlights and celebrates pockets of truly heart-warming altruism, benevolence and self-sacrifice.

The individuals who feature, many of whom have suffered trauma of their own, display incredible humanity, empathy and compassion, and a steely determination to transform lives, restore trust and renew hope.

Remarkable People is an incredibly timely book in this challenging age, a vital tonic, and an amazing antidote to the darkness and negativity of recent times.
