About this event

Isolated by natural barriers, Chile is remarkable for its geographical and biological diversity, with the world’s driest desert, highest volcanoes and physical dimensions that frustrate cartographers – this talk brings together a unique blend of cultural observations, geographical description, and remarkable landscapes. A keen observer of landscape and people, Bruce Gittings is enthralled by Chile and will be sharing his passion for this intriguing country, arguing that Chile’s culture owes as much to Britain as it does to Spain, and that its recent history remains shaped by the descendent of a French immigrant.
