High Norfolk is what the folk of flatter parts of the county call that undulating but inexact area of North Norfolk that is so popular with visitors. Along the banks of its four main streams some extraordinary people have gathered over the centuries, and this little book is to introduce you to some of them; to Aesuminus, for instance, the potter of Brampton, and to Johnson Jex, the scientific anchorite of Letheringsett, from Margaret Paston, the matriarch of the Bure, to Mary Hardy, the diarist of the Glaven. An extraordinary cavalcade of monks and martyrs, blacksmiths and lords, seamen and poets have lived by, worked on, or praised the four lovely rivers of this alluring landscape, The Bure, The Glaven, the Burn and the Stifffkey Rivers. This is not a history, for that you would need to search the sources mentioned at the end; but I have tried to be as factual as is compatible with storytelling.
