| AA
Book of Britain's Walks Automobile Association |

Synopsis An illustrated collection of 120 themed walks with easy to follow directions and accurate route maps |
| Reviews Rambling is the number one outdoor activity in Britain, with more fans even than football, claims the chairman of the Outdoor Writers' Guild in the introduction to the AA Book of Britain's Walks. And this isn't surprising when you consider Britain's scenery. Within one day you can walk "from airy coastal cliffs, sand dunes, through lovely riverside meadows and woods to towering crag-bound lakes and mountains". With such majestic surroundings at our fingertips, it may seem odd to stay in and read a book. But this isn't that sort of book. While its colour photographs of patchwork fields, crumbling castles and wind-whipped trees inspire you to get up out of that armchair, illustrated maps point the way. And you needn't worry that this hefty hardback is too big to carry: each of the 120 maps is reproduced in a rucksack-friendly pocket book. Each themed walk is accompanied by a coloured panel giving information about distance, terrain, gradients and where to park a vehicle, together with a grading system represented by symbols (three boots indicate mountainous or difficult terrain). Numbered instructions surround each map, offering cryptic tips such as: "At a panorama dial, bear right off the path for a steep short-cut to the summit", ensuring that even losing your way can be fun. --

Reviews Synopsis Following other books featuring long-distance walks with Boogie, the mongrel from hell, the author tackles the Pennine Way with a new Boogie, who at first appears - misleadingly - to be a much trendier and more wholesome incarnation. |

| A
Coast to Coast Walk A. Wainwright |
|
 |
Reviews Synopsis When Wainwright planned his cross-England expedition, he chose a route which he hoped would commit no act of trespass or offence against privacy. It later transpired that certain sections of the route did indeed cross land over which there was no public right of way, and this revised edition sets out to amend those sections so that the walk is now either on public roads, public rights of way, or on permissive paths. The Wainwright text which covers those parts of the route which are no longer valid has been marked with a bold line in the left- or right-hand margins. An asterisk then leads to the new typeset copy describing the revised route which appears, in the main, at the foot of the affected pages. |
