The few books about the Dark Peak are pamphlets dealing with aircraft crashes, walks, and mountain biking routes. I cannot even find one about ghost stories or murder stories. The books about the Peak District in general are mostly about the White Peak. After all, the White Peak has more to write about: the geology is more interesting, and the human presence and activity was and is much greater and more diverse. This imbalance is reflected in the respective Wikipedia entries, though the one on the White Peak does not mention its importance as a mining area. So I am trying to correct the bias a bit, as I prefer the grandeur of the Dark. --Martin Wyatt (talk) 19:47, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
